Acting for the Planet

Join the community acting company for Northern Broadsides’ Iron People project

This exciting project offers a unique opportunity for local residents to collaborate with professionals from the world of theatre and literature. Together, we will create brand-new performances that explore the landscape of Calderdale, our relationship to it, and how we can better protect the future of our environment.

We will be developing characters, telling stories and creating outdoor performances in Halifax in March and April 2025, creating a new myth for Calderdale inspired by The Iron Man and The Iron Woman by Ted Hughes.

You will be working with Northern Broadsides Artistic Director Laurie Sansom, and other professional artists such as Movement Director Jen Malarkey, dance-theatre company Northern Rascals and poet Ian Humphreys.

No experience is necessary, but a commitment to attending most rehearsals important.

Places are limited, and priority will be given to Calderdale residents and those with good availability for rehearsals.

For ages 16+
