Aspiring Theatre Careers – May 2024
Posted on 28th May 2024
In May, the Talent Academy successfully held its first ‘Aspiring Theatre Careers’ events at Lincoln County Hospital and Pilgrim Hospital, Boston. The free events provided young people aged 15-19 years, living or educated in Lincolnshire the opportunity to participate in hands on skills sessions and attend informative talks run by experts working in various roles and specialisms within theatres.
Supported by the United Lincolnshire Hospitals Trust theatre team attendees learned about the skills required to work within a career that is integral to each phase of a patient’s operation.
