Cardboard Citizens is a growing organisation and we regularly recruit both staff and actors. We also host placements from students in higher education and others. Posts are advertised in the Guardian and details will also be available on this website.
ACTORS
All of our actors have personal experience of homelessness. Actors are usually recruited following regular attendance at our This Way Up weekly workshops and completion of an intensive training week in Forum Theatre skills, which we hold each summer. For details of our workshops click here
