Need a Creative Producer (or two) for your project? Targeted or long-term.
We’ve created our own producing method which keeps creativity at the heart of every project and allows flexibility, whilst also giving creatives a structured support system.
You might need us for a certain element, to produce the whole project or on a more ad-hoc basis. We support creatives at all stages of their careers, from all forms and with all levels of experience. Check out the projects we have produced here.

I had a pocket producing session with The Project People and it was extremely helpful. We discussed the development of the project so far and brainstormed its future. They have the magic ability to turn your ideas and thoughts into a solid plan with clear steps to work towards. Would recommend them to all independent dance artists like myself!
