Phoebe Stringer, Riverside’s Programming Manager says: ‘After an open call to the early career movers and shakers of the industry we were overwhelmed with the response. It has been nothing but a joy to programme the festival with such spellbinding shows over our two Venues. I cannot wait to see the written scripts and concepts up on our stages.’
