Curve Community Company is an exciting new group for anyone aged over 19 who would like to work with other like-minded adults to create a new original production for a Summer performance at Curve.

The group is open to anyone with some experience in performing – be it Acting, Musical Theatre, Dance, or Music. We will form an ensemble drawing on the different skills of the group to devise and rehearse a cross-artform performance piece.

Rather than working on an existing script, the group will research Leicester specific stories to create a new performance with local interest. This could be anything- a response to the city now, an adaptation of a historical story, an imagining of the future – the group and their Director will work together to decide and devise the production.

How much does it cost?

CCC costs £90 per term. A number of full or half bursaries are available.

When are applications open?

Applications for CCC are now closed.

When does CCC meet?                 

The group will meet every Wednesday night 6-9pm during school term times, to keep in line with our Young Company provision.

Do I have to audition?

We will be holding an introductory group aptitude workshop session, which is a chance for us to introduce the idea more thoroughly, and for prospective applicants to decide if the group is for them. If possible we will take everyone, but depending on numbers there may be a selection element to this workshop.

Existing CYC members between 19-26 who have become too old for CYC due to the lowering of the upper age limit will be guaranteed a place, but must apply.

When will the introductory aptitude workshop be?

Wednesday 4^th Sept at 6pm.
