We hope to find out more about the challenges, approaches, solutions and top tips on starting out and maintaining a career in theatre as a freelancer.

Beyond artists can send their questions in advance or there will be time for us all to respond in the workshop with questions and comments.

8.45pm Lilac and Porcelain will leave us and we will have 15 minutes for Beyond Artists to chat about what came up in the session or other topics related to the Beyond programme.

9pm the session finishes.

It is important you let us know if you are joining us by emailing manishta@graeae.org

This is so we know how many to expect.

You can let us know as late as on the day as Access providers are already booked and ready.
