The Backstage Shadowing Scheme

Whether you are new to St Andrews, theatre in general, or are a lifelong veteran, there’s always something new to learn! This is your chance to delve into an aspect of theatre in which you have little to no prior experience or learn new skills in a field you are interested in pursuing beyond St Andrews.
