Writers
Yellow Earth has launched a new two year Professional Writers’ Programme for writers of East Asian* descent led by Caroline Jester.
Four early career writers have been selected to take part in this intensive new two year programme with the aim of developing at least one play for the company to produce.
Casting
Our productions provide opportunities for professional British East Asian actors. We cast as many roles as possible with BEA actors as they continue to be underrepresented on our stage and screens.
Casting for our productions usually happens via Spotlight. However for some roles we will also meet people not on Spotlight. We occasionally mail out casting opportunities for BEA performers. If you would like to be put on our actor mailing list please send your CV here.
Internships and Placements
Occasionally we offer part time short term unpaid internships or placements. These provide an opportunity to experience and learn about the work involved in the preparation and management of our productions.
There are no internships and placements available at the moment.
Details of any upcoming Intern opportunities will be posted here.
