Executive Director Recruitment Pack EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR RECRUITMENT PACK ABOUT CLOD ENSEMBLE Clod Ensemble occupies a unique place in the theatre landscape. Over their 25-year creative partnership, director Suzy Willson and composer Paul Clark have developed a highly original performance language with which they make visually stunning and aurally complex performances, ambitious in scale and concept. Clod Ensemble works at the intersection of different forms and disciplines – at the point where they meet, transform and challenge each other to become something new. We work with dancers, actors, musicians, medics, architects and orchestras. Our work is presented in London, across the UK and internationally in theatres, dance houses, galleries and public spaces including Sadler’s Wells, Tate Modern, Southbank Centre, The Lowry, Wales Millennium Centre, Serralves Museum Porto and Public Theater New York. Between 2015 – 2019, Clod Ensemble has undergone a transformative period of development, enabled in part by a 5 year £1m investment from Wellcome Trust’s Sustaining Excellence fund. In the coming years we will share the fruits of this work, presenting new productions as well as remounting shows in repertoire; a public engagement programme; artist development scheme and continued development of pioneering participation projects, including Performing Medicine and Living Room Music. Clod Ensemble is a company limited by guarantee and a registered charity. We are an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation. www.clodensemble.com ABOUT PERFORMING MEDICINE Performing Medicine is Clod Ensemble’s award-winning professional development initiative for health professionals and medical students. Our practical, hands-on workshops are delivered by leading artists who help health professionals to use their bodies and voices for effective communication; to become more aware of their own needs as well as those of the people around them; and to appreciate the stories and experiences of others. Since 2001 we have worked with more than 18,000 health professionals and students and we have long-standing partnerships with NHS Trusts and Higher Education Institutions across the UK. Our three-year project at Guy’s and St Thomas’ Trust resulted in a new framework for staff development called Circle of Care to help health professionals think about, practice and demonstrate high quality compassionate care. Performing Medicine is at an exciting stage in its development, with new interest in the programme and momentum around enhancing staff wellbeing and improving compassionate care. Over the coming year we want to maximise on these opportunities and scale up Performing Medicine, supporting many more health professionals and students in providing safe, person-centred and compassionate care to patients. “Performing Medicine is a trail blazer in arts in health education. I have been impressed by the level of commitment and dedication they have shown in developing their innovative and widely respected programme of work across the UK.” Rt Hon.

  • 1 Arts, Health and Wellbeing All Party Parliamentary Group
    Arts, Health and Wellbeing All Party Parliamentary Group The Care Act How the arts and culture can contribute to improving the quality of care following the Francis Inquiry Wednesday July 2nd 4-5pm Room C, 1 Parliament St. SW1A 2NE Notes from the meeting Welcome and Introduction by the Rt Hon. Lord Howarth of Newport The subject of the meeting is the Care Act and how the arts can contribute to humanising health care. The Francis Inquiry has driven home the message that bureaucracy and procedures must not suppress imagination and humanity. It has been important in the development of the Care Act. This APPG is focused on how we can influence the guidance for Local Authorities in connection with the Care Act. Sir Robert Francis QC believes the arts have a role to play in delivering better healthcare. The history of arts and health goes back to the asclepeion at Epidaurus, where the theatre was next to, and integral to, the place of healing. In hospitals, functional processes tend to delete humanity and personal dignity. Staff can have their humanity crushed out of them by bureaucratic processes. They are often bleak environments without pictures on the walls, with exceptions such as Chelsea and Westminster. How can staff take pride in such environments, or care about keeping them clean? Although the connection with his Inquiry and the Care Act is primarily about compliance, the ward ‘culture’ can be very limiting. The Care Act emphasises the duty of local authorities to deliver individual wellbeing in relation to personal dignity and participation in work, education, training or recreation, as well as the individual’s contribution to society.

In the five years since its founding in 2013, the ensemble has performed at a diverse range of venues in Israel and Europe, released a debut album and gained considerable recognition both in the new-music and contemporary performance scene.

  • Music/Sound Creator
    Vanessa Dominique, Drummer, in rehearsals Photo by Hugo Glendinning MUSIC/SOUND CREATOR RECRUITMENT PACK WHY WE CREATED THIS ROLE - We are looking for a talented Music/Sound Creator to work with us on a variety of performance and learning projects. We recognise there is a widespread lack of diversity across the arts, and our experience of working in the industry is that many people don’t have the advantage of an expensive music education. We want to support the next generation of music creators to have a career in the arts, whatever their life experience. This role has been specifically created for someone who has faced barriers because of their socio-economic background, for example who hasn’t been able to take up opportunities or progress in their studies or professional life due to financial pressures. This role is part of the Weston Jerwood Creative Bursaries programme, and includes a specialist programme of career support. Please read the accompanying information at the end of the document before making an application. If you feel you fit this description, and have the appetite and potential to learn, we would love to hear from you. WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR - This role is designed for someone at the beginning of their career, ideally someone who has left education within two to five years. We recognise that you may have faced barriers to work previously and we welcome applications whatever level of training or experience you are at. We know that talented music-creators will not be the finished product. You may be self-taught or you might feel you need more training and support to take your next step.
