The CPTP ran for two years from 2019-2021.
A Creative Producer is ideally present from the early stages of a project. The role straddles the realms of management and creation throughout the entire process from initial concept, to development, through to production and even onto touring. This allows them to apply their intimate knowledge of the work being developed to build creative capacity, rigorously supporting the artist throughout each phase of development.
As a leading incubator and producer of new work, The Theatre Centre was uniquely positioned to offer a Creative Producer the opportunity for on-the-job training and mentorship, working closely with a number of artists whose projects are all at different stages of development, production, and touring.
The goal of the program and our hope for the artistic community at large is that the practice of creative producing becomes more widespread and benefits the work being created and produced across the country.
