Professional Development Support Programme recipients

This year, with some additional funding from the City of Edinburgh Council, we are running a Professional Development Support programme, which was open to professional freelance performing arts practitioners at any stage of their career who live in the council area.

We held an open call and from the 42 applicattions we received, selected 15 people at random with an observer present.

We are delighted to announce that the 15 practitioners are: Conor O’Dwyer, Lisa Wilson, Erin Boulter, Maria McDonnell, Razan Madhoon, Mark Borthwick, Kate Stamoulis, Sarah Marie Mooney, Cynthia WS Cheung, Skye Loneragan, Pirita Tuisku, Lily Just, Melanie Frances, Morna Burdon, Emily Ingram

The recipients are receiving a personalised programme of contact with an experienced professional, who will help them to develop their practice in specific ways.

We are looking forward to hearing how everyone gets on with this bespoke mentoring over the next few months.
