Partnerships
We regularly work in partnership with HE providers at our theatres, delivering industry talks and tours, research briefs, placements and volunteering opportunities. At Hyde Park Picture House we offer critical and practical learning opportunities for students at all levels and across fields as diverse as film studies, creative and cultural industries, visual communications, modern languages, event and festival studies, and heritage studies.
Over the past few years we have worked with students facilitating research into particular areas of interest within our theatre archives.
Research placements have resulted in a number of showcase and temporary exhibitions displayed within our performance venues and spaces; projects to date have explored our pantomime history, our theatres through wartime and performing gender.
Hyde Park Picture House has a longstanding partnership with researchers in the Centre for World Cinemas and Digital Cultures at the University of Leeds, and is ideal for hosting lectures and seminars.
As well as offering academics the opportunity for engagement through participation in our public programmes, the cinema team has designed two sessions for a cross-faculty MA module ‘Film Arts and Industries’.
Placements
Every year we work in partnership with regional universities offering teacher training placements.
Past placements have gained hands-on experience in delivering activities for pupils outside of school, and have supported reviews and enhancements of our programme. Vacancies will be advertised when available.
