NEWS: Common Ground: Career Progression as a Working-Class Artist in Newcastle

Arts organisation Common is seeking to support the UK theatre industry, with goals of economic diversity and helping artists from working-class backgrounds a cornerstone.

Common Ground is the inaugural initiative which is an inclusive, supportive discussion aimed at artists from working-class environments, with leading theatres across the country providing useful help to push forward with giving working-class voices a fair chance within the arts. With a focus on those working and living in Newcastle and the surrounding areas, it’s a big chance for creatives in our region to make more of their talent.
