Now in its third year, this category of membership is designed to identify and support producers and future theatre/performing arts industry leaders who would not currently be eligible for membership under our existing terms and conditions.
We are actively encouraging applications from groups who have historically been underrepresented within SOLT’s membership over the last 116 years, to ensure the membership is more inclusive, representative of society in its broadest sense, and reflects the people of London.
Applications close Monday 20 January 2025. If you would like to speak to a member of the team, please email members@soltukt.co.uk.
We held an information webinar for applicants on 8 January, with questions answered by SOLT President Kash Bennett, Vice-President Eleanor Lloyd and current Associate Member Chuchu Nwagu. A recording of this webinar is now available to download – please email members@soltukt.co.uk for further information.
