All paid for workshops are eligible for Pay What You Want. As everyone’s circumstances are different, we’re aiming to make our programme of work more accessible. There is a minimum price that we can offer and one that is slightly higher, for those who can afford to pay a little extra to help support the work that we do.
With the current cost of living crisis, we are more aware than ever of the need to ensure that BUILD remains accessible. With that in mind, we are offering a few free places for BUILD events. To request a free place, visit the main BUILD page at www.tron.co.uk/creative/build/ and complete the short online form.
Please note that while we will try to accommodate as many requests as possible, these places are limited.

Suitable for: Actors
Tron Theatre’s Associate Director Joanna Bowman is offering a limited number of sessions with actors to work together on a monologue of their choosing.
Perhaps you feel stuck with a monologue you are rehearsing, or you would benefit from some directorial insight. These one-to-one sessions are aimed to help you improve upon a piece you are working on.
Actors will be asked to choose a published monologue to work on. They will be asked to send this to the Tron in advance of the session.
