We are committed to nurturing the talent and authenticity of all our students, fostering collaboration as well as individualism in a supportive and challenging training environment. Mockingbird has high quality drama studios, an auditorium and access to Performing Arts venues across Qatar. Our students have performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, National Museum and National Theatre in Qatar at the Poppy Ball, Shakespeare Festival and BSME Dance Competition.

**About you**:
They should be an experienced arts professional with a background in Musical Theatre, teaching and/or working with young people, and a desire to teach in a progressive, student-centred and innovative way.
