The role is crucial for ensuring that our venues offer a distinctive, broad, high-quality programme of approximately 350 productions and 1,000 performances of live performance, film, and visual art per year. The programme includes received and copromoted commercial productions, partnerships with nationally funded companies, community events, and a small % of own promotions. We produce our annual pantomime in house. We are an Arts Council NPO and are supported by BCP council.
