#JMKSpace with Jake Orr

May 4, 2020 by Stephen Fewell

Producing

How does it work and what are the challenges?

with

Jake Orr

This #JMKSpace session/workshop on Zoom will look at the relationship between a theatre director and creative producer.

Jake will use previous productions he has worked upon to give an insight into the relationship. He will also aim to demystify what a producer does, giving participants an opportunity to ask questions, learn about the challenges of producing and how as a director you can be a producer of your own work.

This #JMKSpace event is open to all.  It takes the place of our directors’ group normally hosted by Nottingham Playhouse. 25 spaces are available.

The workshop will take place 5.00 – 6.30 p.m on Tuesday May 12th on Zoom, facilitated by Martin Berry. 

To reserve your free place, and receive a Zoom invitation, please email– martinberry16@gmail.com

If you have any access requirements, need technical support or have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to contact martinberry16@gmail.com

More #JMKSpace open-access events to be announced soon.

Jake is the Producer at Nottingham Playhouse, overseeing the producing of each of the venue’s in-house productions and co-productions including tours. Previously Jake was Producer at Theatre503 and freelance as well as producing through his company Jake Orr Productions.
