Circus and Physical Theatre (CaPT) Advisory Group EOIs

The CaPT Advisory Group meets online four times per year.

It has two key aims:

1. To maintain strong engagement and information exchange between TNA and the CaPT sector.
2. To advise TNA on CaPT sector issues and opportunities that will inform the development of future CaPT advocacy activities.

TNA is seeking people who can contribute:

– Their ideas and energy to advocacy
– Knowledge and networking in the sector
– Local, regional, national and international perspectives

TNA will appoint up to 5 people with significant and diverse experience within the CaPT sector who are committed to fulfilling the aims of the CaPT Advisory Group, have strong ongoing links to the wider CaPT community, and can bring their knowledge and connections to strengthen the sector.

To improve equity in sector representation, TNA pays unsalaried indies an annual honorarium to be on the Advisory.

Please fill out the form below if you're interested in joining the Advisory Group. EOIs are due Friday, 7 August 2026.
