ABOUT THE SCHEME
The Baylis Director is an annual post that provides one director the opportunity to direct a full-scale production at The Old Vic, a fund with which to commission a new piece of work, and a chance to shadow the Artistic Director, using The Old Vic’s space and resources to research and develop projects. This year’s Baylis Director is Tinuke Craig.
Tinuke directed Regina Taylor’s Aisha (the black album) in March 2021, as part of our One Voice series, and is directing August Wilson’s Jitney which will play at The Old Vic from 09 Jun–09 Jul 2022.
Supported by The Old Vic Impact Fund and a generous donor who wishes to remain anonymous.
