A former Fringe participant and experienced arts manager, has today been announced as the new Head of Artist Services at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society. Chris Snow took up post at the start of September 2022, having most recently held the role of Head of Support Services at the National Theatre in London.
With extensive experience in supporting and leading cultural teams, Chris brings a wealth of knowledge to the senior post. In his early twenties Chris brought several small-scale shows to Edinburgh under his own theatre company, and understands the challenges and opportunities facing artists as they perform at the festival for the first time. Having worked for several years managing large buildings for major global businesses, he then led National Theatre’s operational teams through the pandemic; and as such also has a strong grounding on how to support more established performers and venues.
The ETPEP Award 2022 has been won by first time playwright by Saana Sze for their play Belly of the Beast.
They’re looking for DJs, producers, collectives, producers, artists or performers who have an idea for a night, or an existing event series, and want to grow with no financial stress and a home to do it in.
The Society of London Theatre has today announced the return of TheatreCraft, the UK’s largest free theatre careers event. Now in its 16th year, the 2022 event will take place at London’s Royal Opera House on Tuesday 25October.
