BOP Work Experience

Guest blog post by Cleopatra, one of our BOP Young Artists

My name is Cleopatra and I’m 18 years old. I started work experience here on the 16 of October at Birds of Paradise (BOP). 

I’m helping them with the Birds Of Paradise (BOP) project called Locked World, which includes social media and emailing all of the interpreters for the Locked World launch event. This event will take place on November 14th, on Zoom. More details here. 

Then me and my colleague (Morna) discussed how to put the Locked World contents on Instagram and Twitter (X) for Locked World launch.

I also learned how to update spreadsheets in the BOP Google Drive, how to scan receipts and file expenses.  

I am enjoying my work experience here so much.

Earlier this year, our Development Officer Morna travelled to Estonia to take part in a two-day accessibility-focused hackathon, which brought together theatre practitioners, researchers, producers, choreographers and disabled activists to imagine new ways of creating work that centres accessibility.
