The Art of Inclusion: Harnessing EDI to Strengthen Your Arts and Culture Organisation
Monday, October 23, 2023 • Duration 46:22
Embracing equity, diversity, and inclusion enriches artistic expression and broadens audience engagement, and also ensures that the arts remain relevant, accessible, and representative of our evolving societal landscape.

In this episode, Lucy Kerbel, founder and director of Tonic Theatre, takes us through how to start thinking about EDI, underscoring the importance of taking proactive measures, fostering collaboration, and driving sustainable change.

Viewing diversity as a strength and understanding the bottom-line benefits of a diverse workforce and audience, means we can empower our organisational Changemakers and better support all of our EDI initiatives.

Monday, October 16, 2023 • Duration 38:35
38 mins
Audience behaviour is changing social media in dramatic ways. Marketing Manager, Meg Edwards of HdK Associates explains what is changing and how arts and culture organisations can adapt.
Social media's ability to engage audiences and prompt interaction is like the holy grail of marketing. But, audience behaviour - especially Gen Z's behaviour - is changing how everyone engages online.
We sat down with HdK Associates Marketing Manager, Meg Edwards to get her insights on how arts, culture and heritage organisations need to think about audience engagement in this shifting social media landscape.
Meg explains why targeted storytelling is crucial in engaging audiences on social media to bring your mission and productions to life and the importance of authenticity and transparency.
She discusses Gen Z's impact on the rise of short form video content and what to consider when creating short form media. Meg explains when using short form video, aim to spark joy, inspire awe, and build community alongside directly promoting your mission. Audiences crave these emotional connections.
Meg also shares practical tips on keeping your marketing content and campaigns fresh and on point in the constantly shifting waters of social media marketing. Afterall, the relationship between audience behaviour and social media is dynamic. Understanding their reciprocal impacts rather than viewing platforms as external force will make all the difference.

Benchmarking Best Practices with TRG Arts
Wednesday, September 27, 2023 • Duration 51:04
TRG Arts' Senior Consultant, Tom Stickland joins host Lucy Costelloe to discuss how to use data and metrics as the foundation for strategies that help build loyal audiences for arts and cultural organisations.
Tom explains the importance of identifying your organisation's definition of success and aligning metrics to long-term goals like patron loyalty and revenue resilience and avoiding short-term targets.
Using TRG's approach, organisations should look at historical data to set realistic growth projections and benchmark against industry data if gaps in your own data make it necessary.
But what data should you focus on? Tom suggests focusing on key metrics like earned revenue percentage, patron activity rates, churn/attrition, data capture rates, and per cap ticket revenue and regularly measuring progress throughout the year rather than just at year-end.
These sorts of regular checks, with small experiments - and being able to embrace failure when some experiments inevitably fail - is how your team can learn to quickly adapt and course correct versus and still hit all your long-term organisational goals.

Rising Stars: A Conversation with Young Performers on Arts and Culture 2.0
Tuesday, September 5, 2023 • Duration 21:41
Being a professional actor has always been challenging but rewarding. It is a competitive industry, where you have to have persistence and a thick skin to make it. But what do young performers think about their future in the industry?
We sit down with three young actors Lizzie Austin, Chloe Wright and Elias Prosser who are embarking on the next phase of their careers and learn what they hope for in the future and what challenges they face.
We touch on why drama schools are important for a future in acting and hear about how many young actors are looking towards the small screen rather than the stage. We also talk about how the rise of new technologies has created shorter attention spans, but that even for young people - traditional theatre still has its place.

The Show Must Go On, with Dr. Kirsty Sedgman
Monday, July 24, 2023 • Duration 40:48
We've seen the headlines: misbehaving, rude and disruptive audiences threatening and even assaulting staff and ruining performances for everyone. What is going on? What happened to the unwritten rules of audience etiquette? From customer-facing industries to public transport and cafes, interpersonal altercations seem to be happening everywhere.
In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Kirsty Sedgman, author, lecturer and award-winning scholar specialising in audience research and cultural value from Bristol University, to discuss how audience behaviour has changed and the challenges faced by the industry in maintaining a welcoming and respectful atmosphere.
Throughout the episode, we explore the intricate dynamics of theatre etiquette and what is acceptable behaviour; from phones and snacks to dress codes and applause protocol. It's clear that there are complex issues at play, including exclusionary expectations that need to be tackled.
We delve into the historical roots of silence and reverence in the theatre and discover how social structures and expectations have shaped our perceptions of reasonable behaviour. By clinging to tradition are we inadvertently excluding certain audiences, and perpetuating inequities?
Kirsty reminds us of the importance of making accommodations for individuals with different needs as well as for community outreach, and the need to ensure inclusivity and a sense of togetherness.
Thank you to our incredible guest, Kirsty Sedgman, for joining us, and we can't wait to delve further into her book. Don't miss out on this enlightening and thought-provoking episode!
