In December I photographed TheatreCraft 2009 careers fair at the London Coliseum in London. The fair is aimed a people between the ages of 17-25 who are dreaming of a career in the theatre. It covers a huge variety of jobs such as writing, costume design, lighting, prop design, directing and production management. It is run by Masterclass in partnership with the Society of London Theatre, Mousetrap Theatre Projects, ENO Baylis and the National Skills Academy for Creative & Cultural Skills and supported by the Stage.

There are a large number of free workshops throughout the day as well as various exhibitors around the theatre. Below I have posted number of photographs of the exhibitors and during the next few weeks I will post a number of blogs of the workshops themselves.
