No two artist-producer relationships are the same, some are project based, some are more long-term. Sometimes independent producers take the risk together with the artists to make work, sometimes artists effectively “employs” a producer to make their work happen.    

In this session, Theatre Artist Max Percy and Producer Natalie Chan will share how they navigate all of this, some of the things you can expect to be covered:

- How to maintain a long-term, sustainable working relationship, prioritise time & resources, whilst both doing other jobs.

- How to work through disagreements/problem-solve. 

- How to find transparent ways of working together, in particular during pre-funding stages.   

-  Ways to test out/things to think about whether the working relationship is right for you.
