Why Join?
Inspired by Coffee Connect, as offered by the Careers Centre, this new scheme aims to connect aspiring backstage minds with those already working in shows in their desired field.
Using the form below, tell us what you are interested in learning and what your experience is in your field. Whether you are just interested in hearing more about what a producer does or have specific questions about micing a live orchestra, we can find someone to answer them.
Please contact our Shadowing Coordinator, Robert "Romo" Moran (BackstageShadowing@st-andrews.ac.uk), with any questions or concerns!
If you want to delve deeper into a specific backstage field, consider signing up for the new Backstage Shadowing Scheme HERE! Alternatively, if you are leaving St Andrews soon and want to connect with someone already working in the professional theatrical industry, you can find more about that HERE.
