Dundee Rep Theatre is excited to announce Next Up Festival

Dundee Rep Theatre is excited to announce a new project for March 2017. Next Up Festival 

Next Up Festival will be a celebration of young theatre-makers in the North East of Scotland. School groups and youth theatres will devise original performances to be shared in Dundee Rep’s auditorium on the weekend of the 24th – 26th March 2017. 

Taking inspiration from Dundee Rep Theatre’s upcoming production of Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller each group will work with the stimulus of The American Dream to create an original 25 minute performance. 

Each participating group will receive the following: 

• A launch workshop from Rep Creative Learning (RCL) 
• Up to 4 rehearsal support visits from RCL 
• Full technical rehearsal with Rep Production staff 

Over the festival weekend groups will have the opportunity to: 

• Perform on Dundee Rep’s main stage 
• Take part in workshops from visiting artists 
• Watch original performances created by their peers 
• Host their own post-show discussion 

Additional information 
Participation in Next Up Festival costs £170. This includes launch workshop, rehearsal visits, technical rehearsal, performance and participation in workshops over the festival weekend. If finance would be a barrier in participating in this opportunity, please don’t hesitate to contact Dundee Rep Creative Learning to discuss this further.
