Theatre and Dance NI

We achieve our aims through delivery of a programme of artist and company skills development, professional training & bursary programmes, residencies and delivery of major sectoral initiatives such as INVEST (theatre and dance makers immersive development and mentoring programme) & NI Spotlight at the Edinburgh Fringe platforming Northern Ireland’s artists in the world’s biggest arts marketplace, Creating Safer Spaces (across the theatre, dance and performing arts sector, calling out and ending bullying, racism and harassment) and our Membership Assistance Programme (MAP) (designed to support member’s health and wellbeing).

We support sector advocacy and lobby collaboratively to give theatre and dance a strong united voice, and recognition of its vital role in society.
