Applications

For the safety of everyone, we have decided to move our auditions online and avoid people travelling to our building. All applicants will now need to audition by video. See below for more information about the video audition process.

All applicants will be required to submit a video audition by 7^th April 2021, 1pm.

Important: You must have submitted an application form first, and by 15^th March 2021 1pm, in order to be considered.

Please refer to our Video Audition Requirements and Criteria below for full details of what to include in your video and what our panel will be assessing. Please be assured that you will not be assessed on the quality of the filming or your editing skills.

Our audition panel will review the videos and shortlisted candidates will then be invited to an online interview. The interview will be with at least two members of the Higher Education team.

Ahead of the interview, you will be asked to research a circus company that has been founded within the last 15 years, in preparation to discuss one or more of the following:

Movement qualities

Theatrical style

Circus content

Staging
