Aspiring Theatre Careers – Boston – 25 June 2025
Posted on 1st July 2025

In June, the Talent Academy hosted the Aspiring Theatre Careers event at Pilgrim Hospital, Boston. Taking place in both Boston and Lincoln, young individuals aged 15 to 19 from across Lincolnshire had the opportunity to explore the essential skills and values required to provide care before, during, and after a patient’s surgical procedure.
Supported by the theatre teams of the United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, attendees engaged in clinical skills workshops and participated in informative talks led by professionals in various roles and specialisms within the theatre environment.
“I signed up to explore allied healthcare careers. I learnt a lot about the operating theatre career scene and the roles involved. I would definitely recommend the event to other people interested in any healthcare roles. My favourite part of the event was being a patient during the recovery rotation.” – anonymous attendee
“I signed up for the event as I am really interested in a career in medicine, and I wanted a deeper insight into what different healthcare professionals’ jobs entail day to day and what they enjoy about them. I definitely came away with more knowledge about this, as everyone was so helpful and inspiring. I would definitely recommend this event to others as it can help you to make an informed decision about the career that you may wish to pursue. My favourite part of the event was the intubation station, as it was cool to practice something which is done regularly in hospitals. Thank you for this opportunity.” – anonymous attendee
“I signed up for this event as I want a career in healthcare (in the NHS), and hence attending the evening provided me with useful insight into the available jobs, opportunities and responsibilities within the theatre. My most enjoyable part of the event was where we were given a challenge to intubate the dummy, as that provided some hands-on work and a bit of a challenge. I would highly recommend Aspiring Events to anyone interested in a career within the healthcare profession.” – anonymous attendee
