Hey there, theatre enthusiasts. Welcome to our electrifying world of Headlong Origins – now in its fourth year. This groundbreaking scheme is about championing budding theatre directors from every corner of the UK.

Picture this: a whole year jam-packed with mentorship from top-notch industry pros and our stellar producing and creative teams. We're talking hands-on experience. Directors selected for this journey will immerse themselves in Headlong’s R&D sessions, dive into workshops, and get up close and personal with the rehearsal process. 

But that's not all – they'll soak up the best of UK theatre, shaping their artistic vision every step of the way. We're thrilled to announce that we have our Origins 4.0 cohort. We want you to meet them: they have exciting stories to tell.
