Today has been Inspiring Future Theatre Day – in which theatres, colleges and theatre workers around the country come together to talk about all the amazing opportunities for careers in theatre that you might not even have heard of! For every actor on stage there are countless off-stage and in-office roles that go in to making theatre magical. From stage door to wigs and makeup to marketing and accounts, there are so many ways to work in and support our amazing industry!
