Currently running as a pilot, the course is designed and created to bring visibility to offstage roles and recognise the achievements of initial entrants in the industry who are interested in better developing their understanding of backstage theatre and live events.
The Copper Award celebrates and encourages the participants interest in potentially studying and working in our sector by engaging them in introductory training into backstage jobs, giving them a chance to prove their passion and commitment by developing their understanding and competence of backstage theatre roles.
