Empowering young people through creativity, craftsmanship, and real backstage skills.
Backstage Builders delivers creative programmes that open doors into backstage theatre, film, and live events. Our initiatives build confidence, develop practical skills, and create real pathways into the creative industries — particularly for young people who face barriers to access.
Join the Backstage Buildings CIC Community
Working behind the scenes can be rewarding, but it can also be isolating. Whether you're a scenic artist, prop maker, set designer, stage manager, crew member, production designer, or part of the wider art department, finding opportunities to connect with others in the industry isn't always easy.
That's why we've created the Backstage Buildings CIC Membership.
For just £4 per month, you'll become part of a growing community of creatives working across theatre, TV, film, and live events. Through our Discord community, monthly online talks, networking opportunities, and workshop discounts, we're creating a space where people can share knowledge, ask questions, build connections, and support one another.
As a founding member, you'll have the opportunity to help shape the community's future as it grows. We'll be bringing industry professionals together to share career journeys, practical skills, advice, and insights that can help members at every stage of their careers.
Your membership doesn't just benefit you. Every membership helps support Backstage Buildings CIC's work, allowing us to continue creating opportunities for creatives, developing learning experiences, supporting industry connections, and building pathways for emerging talent.
Membership includes:
✓ Access to our private Discord community
✓ Monthly online career and skills talks
✓ Discounts on workshops and future courses
