The Backstage Pass: Plug-In & Connect for Practitioners
Virtual Event / In-person
Last Thursday of every other month, 2025
Events for Practitioners
Backstage in the theatre is where staging can be moved, lights can be adjusted, actors can connect, chill out together, make mistakes, share triumphs and tragedies, support each other.
This is your space for connection, for relaxing, recharging, for sharing experiences to help each other, or simply for enjoying food together. There will be no formal programme or agenda for these events, although we will have a plan for you! Come with whatever is on your mind, feel enriched and energised by connecting with your tribe.
Why attend The BackStage Pass?
BackStage is your opportunity to step into a space designed exclusively for practitioners in The Pioneer and The Liberator.
Think of it as your backstage pass to a day of connection, collaboration, and growth. Whether you’re here to share, seek support, or simply recharge, this day is all about making the most of the collective expertise in the room - and walking away enriched and energised.
This isn’t a formal workshop or programme, but we’ll guide the day to ensure it’s valuable for you. It’s a relaxed, flexible environment where you can lean into the experience, tap into the wisdom of others, and leave with new insights, strategies, and connections to support your journey.
What you can expect?
A supportive, informal space to connect with like-minded practitioners.
Opportunities to share experiences, challenges, and successes.
Facilitated activities to help address your specific needs, utilising the expertise in the room.
Time to build your network and strengthen relationships.
Practical takeaways to help you grow your business with confidence.
