ABOUT THE SCHEME
The Baylis Assistant Director is a funded scheme that provides the opportunity for an emerging director to take the next step in their career by assisting on one of our main stage productions and working within a large scale organisation.
The Baylis Assistant Director is a short term (three–five months) residency at The Old Vic, providing unique opportunities for aspiring directors to work with and learn from seasoned professionals in the industry.
The Baylis Assistant Directors are generously supported by Tim and Sarah Minchin and The Chapman Charitable Trust.
Applications for The Baylis Assistant Directors are currently closed.
