Partner Organisations
The Lowry
Lighthouse
Our friendship with Lighthouse Poole is very long lived, as it provides the home for our young company: Extraordinary Bodies Young Artists, as well as forming part of our partnership of touring venues.
Theatre Royal Plymouth
In 2016-2017, Diverse City worked with Theatre Royal Plymouth as Agents For Change. We provided practical steps and advice around diversifying recruitment and community engagement. We delivered sessions for Senior Management, Board members and staff throughout the organisation to provoke new thinking around how under-represented communities might be engaged and recruited. We created meaningful connections between Theatre Royal Plymouth with our networks of organisations who were on the same journey to increase diversity.
The Civic
Bristol Old Vic
2016 marked the beginning of our long-term relationship with Bristol Old Vic. We delivered a series of cross departmental workshops to provoke and inspire thinking and action around diversity in the venue. Sessions included work around casting diversification, welcoming D/deaf and visually impaired visitors for Front of House staff, integrated practice for the outreach department and discussions around accessibility issues with the building which informed its refurbishment in 2019. Diverse City’s connection with Bristol Old Vic remains strong as we are one of the venue’s Associate Companies.
The Fire Station
Brixton House
Ramps On The Moon
We delivered 15 training sessions over the course of a year for Ramps On The Moon, a collaborative network led by New Wolsey Theatre, bringing together The Birmingham Repertory Theatre, New Wolsey Theatre, Nottingham Playhouse, West Yorkshire Playhouse, Sheffield Theatres, Theatre Royal Stratford East and Graeae Theatre. The training led by Diverse City training focused on best practice to work inclusively with D/deaf, disabled and non-disabled young people.
