Assistant Stage Manager for CATS

Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre is seeking an experienced and highly organised Assistant Stage Manager for our 2026 production of CATS

This role covers two distinct phases of the production’s life:

• the Regent’s Park run, working within the producing and operational structure of the Open Air Theatre and;
• the subsequent UK tour, where the successful candidate will continue with the production as Assistant Stage Manager, providing continuity between the original production and touring company.

Applicants must therefore be available and committed to the full engagement across both the Regent’s Park run and the UK tour.

Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre:
15 June – 20 September 2026
This contract will be issued by Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre.

w/c 21st September 2026 – Rehearsal
Week TBC - 28th September 2026 – 20th June 2027
