For Artists

Red Ladder has a long history supporting artists to launch their careers or develop their projects.

Writers and theatre makers

Although we're a small team, we want to use our resources to support as many of you as we can, in the best possible way.

Are you a touring company interested in showcasing your production on the Red Ladder Local circuit?

We’re interested in supporting and hiring people who are contributing to the theatre ecology in the North of England.

Meet some familiar folk who have helped shape us, and learn about Red Ladder's role in shaping them!
