With engagement as a core value, National Theatre Wales will aim to be at the forefront of learning and participation in theatre in Wales and internationally. We will centralise learning and participation in all of our activity. When we make work for young people it will be part of our core programme. Community engagement and participation will be a feature of every single piece of work we make. We aim to forge partnerships with learners, educators, schools, colleges and academies on the broadest scale: from making work for babies to co-sponsoring a PhD.

We will be using this website to share a wide range of resources with teachers and students, and will be hosting online debates, visits to rehearsals, discusssions and special events for all of our work. Watch this space! We would be very interested in your feedback and thoughts as we continue to grow and develop our education strategies and relationships.

National Theatre Wales is founded on our community of artists - emerging and established - in, from, and beyond Wales. You can find our Casting Policy as well as our Guidelines for Artists here, and any other policies can be requested at any time by contacting us.

Guidelines for Artists


On our community we have Groups for Actors, Writers and Creatives and this is a key way that we communicate with you all, share plans, get feedback, and formulate best practice guided by you.

You can join those groups via our online community

We put sustainability at the heart of the work we make, the way we make it, tell you about it, and the way we function as an organisation. We believe that climate change is a real, urgent issue which contains social, economic, local, global, equality, human rights and well-being priorities.




This is why we are developing a sustainability policy and it will be available here soon. This policy will contain strategies and commitments that aim to be holistic and apply a sustainability filter to all of our choices and operations.
