This vibrant, in-progress showcase is the culmination of months of creative exploration by over 20 rangatahi taking part in NYT’s Emerging Directors Programme, delivered in partnership with ONEONESIX. Held Together is a curated collection of scenes drawn from published plays, each selected and staged by young directors as a platform to learn the fundamentals of working with text, shaping performance, and collaborating with a performance team.
Guided by experienced industry mentors, these brave and bold young artists have thrown themselves into the craft of directing — experimenting with storytelling, blocking, pacing, character development, and creative leadership. What emerges is a compelling mosaic of human connection, disruption, and discovery.
As much a process as a performance, this event invites you into the room with the next generation of theatre-makers as they test ideas, take risks, and develop their voices. Held Together is not just a show — it’s a snapshot of growth, courage, and collective creativity in motion.
