Our high turnover of productions means that we can work with a whole host of diverse and friendly faces every year.
Some of our work is solely produced and funded by us, and planned a long way in advance. Other productions arrive with funding (for example, from private sources, trusts and foundations, or Arts Council England) and are general-managed in-house at Jermyn Street Theatre. We also work with regional theatres to bring their work to London and take our work to the rest of the UK and beyond.
We believe in producing theatre that is representational and empowering, and are keen to hear from producers, directors, playwrights and their agents from the LGBTQ+ community, especially those who self-identify as trans and non-binary.
We are actively seeking to employ, and forge long-term working relationships with, more Black, Asian, and ethnically diverse creatives.
We are signatories to the Equity Fringe Agreement, so all actors, stage management and creatives must be paid at least the National Minimum Wage.
We want to tell a broader range of stories in a more inclusive way, and we especially welcome proposals of plays by Black, Asian and ethnically diverse writers, or plays that tell the stories of people we have under-represented in the past.
The best way to get a sense of our programming is to look at our past productions on the Production Archive. We do not usually programme devised, physical or dance-based work.
We are keen to find more small-scale musicals.
We programme roughly a year ahead, but this varies. If you are interested in co-producing with us, please email us:
Each July and August we programme a few weeks of shorter runs. This is a way for smaller companies to stage their work. We charge weekly rental , with additional contra charges. If you have a proposal for the summer, please email us.
If you would like to be considered as an actor in an upcoming production then please ask your agent to keep an eye out for casting breakdowns on Spotlight. We sadly do not have the resources to keep CVs on file, or to respond to direct enquiries. If you are an actor with a production proposal, please see the Co-producers section.
We are signatories to the Equity Fringe Agreement and our wages vary depending on the production, but are never below £360pw.
We sadly don’t have the resources to read or respond to unsolicited manuscripts. We prefer a production proposal (perhaps with a director and/or some funding in place), but if you have a script that matches our programming especially well, please get in touch. Most of the writers who work with us are established or mid-career, but we always have room for emerging artists too. Please send a brief synopsis of the script by email.
Our performance space is the heart of Jermyn Street Theatre and we take pride in how much quality creative work we can squeeze into such a small room. Our theatre team works closely with lighting, sound, costume and set designers to ensure that your creative visions are achieved.
Please email us if you would like to be considered for a production.
All the world’s a stage, and stage managers certainly mean the world to us. We are always on the lookout for fresh faces to join our team, so if you’re looking for a job – or if you are a stage/production management student seeking a placement – please email us.
