Have you ever wanted to bring real voices from history onto the stage? Operation Market Garden is this term’s Corpus Lateshow (November 11–15, Michaelmas Week 5): a moving, student-written verbatim play drawn directly from the WWII diary of a Welsh paratrooper captured at Arnhem. Developed with professional support and recognised by the Arnhem Museum, this is a rare chance to help stage a piece rooted in authentic testimony.

We are now putting together the extended prod team and tech team, and we are looking for people who are collaborative, creative, and committed. No prior theatre experience is necessary — what matters most is energy, imagination and a willingness to learn.

The deadline of September 1st is for Technical Director  (a role which may also cover lighting or sound) and Costume Designer . The deadline of September 14th is for Lighting Designer , Sound Designer  and Publicity. We are also seeking an Accent Coach, with applications considered on a rolling basis.
