AN award-winning theatre company is offering the chance to work backstage as they deliver an acclaimed show at Theatre Royal Plymouth.

Sir Matthew Bourne's company New Adventures is in the city this month for their production of The Red Shoes, which is showing from November 17-22.

As part of their visit, the company is also offering a series of technical theatre placements and community dance projects designed to inspire creativity both on and off the stage.

Starting next week, three backstage placements in Stage/Automation, Lighting, and Wardrobe will see participants work alongside New Adventures' touring crew during a live production week.
