Apply to be a Regional Dance Ambassador for New Adventures' Take Flight Swan Lake

New Adventures are looking for a Regional Dance Ambassador for the Take Flight Swan Lake project at The Alhambra Theatre, Bradford.

In 2024-25 New Adventures is touring its pioneering production of Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake. To coincide with this 30th anniversary UK tour, we have an ambition to reach over 2,500 young people in local communities through Swan Lake Take Flight. The project will be delivered in partnership with 6 Placemaking venues, as we seek to support relationships between venues and local community groups and bring new audiences into theatres across the country. The activities that make up this project are inspired by Swan Lake and will engage young people in dance, focussing on how connecting, creating, and moving together can improve wellbeing.

The Regional Dance Ambassador will:

  • Attend 3-day intensive training with New Adventures.
  • Lead up to 10 movement workshops locally with up to 25 participants per workshop across a 4-5 week period.
  • Support the running of Take Flight days with New Adventures Dance Artists.
  • Watch Swan Lake at their local venue with participants from Take Flight days.
  • Take part in the evaluation over the course of the whole project.

The regional dance ambassador will receive training from New Adventures to deliver this work. The aim is to create a bespoke legacy with the dance ambassador and the venue to continue leading and promoting dance in the local area.

The deadline for your application is Monday 29th July, 10am. To find out more about the job specification and how to apply, click the link below.
