WHAM (Wigs, Hair and Make-up) Managers and WHAM Assistants,

In February we’ll announce our Festival 2025 programme which runs from April to October, and we’re now looking for a brilliant backstage team to join us, with contracts of various lengths and start dates which we can discuss at interview.

The 2025 Festival season at Chichester Festival Theatre promises a fantastic mix of plays and musicals, including world premieres and new writing. We work with some of the UK’s most prominent theatrical creative teams in our two world class theatres, as well as a variety of other spaces across the Festival Season. We bring people – artists and those who support artistic work – together, in an environment where creatively they can flourish and where everyone is valued.

Applicants may apply for more than one role – please clearly indicate which role(s) you are applying for in your covering letter/video of application.
