Episode 2: CREATIVE COMMUNITIES - Discover how to get involved with us. We talk to Tony Casement and Rachel Fitzgerald

New Wolsey Theatre Podcast

This podcast episode is all about Creative Communities at the New Wolsey Theatre, a place where everyone is given the opportunity to participate in, engage with, and discover the arts, and even potentially learn the best ways to make their passion in the arts a career.

We chat to Head of Creative Communities, Tony Casement, and Creative Communities Projects Producer, Rachel Fitzgerald about what their work involves, and about all of the things Creative Communities has to offer, such as various youth theatre groups, the new NW2 accessible space, upcoming projects, and some exciting things coming up in summer!

We also spoke to them about how they came to be in their roles, with Rachel reflecting on how much of an impact her youth theatre had on her when she was younger - “I grew up in Clacton, and there wasn't massive amounts for young people to do there. But what I did do was join a youth theatre when I was younger, and that really gave me a space to be myself and meet people outside of school. And that really ignited my passion for performing arts. And that sent me off in my career.”
