About The Cauldron

The Cauldron is a performing arts foundation dedicated to bringing diverse and innovative, English speaking musical theatre to Amsterdam. OUR PRINCIPLES I. PROMOTE DIVERISTY, EQUITY AND EQUALITY The performance industry in general is broken, and only recently have we seen an increase in diverse casting on Broadway and the West End. We commit to challenging traditional casting and giving equal opportunity to performers of all ethnicities, ages, sizes, and backgrounds regardless of how a role has traditionally been played in the past. We aspire to be the change that we want to see in the industry. II. PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES We commit to providing a space where new artists can hone their craft among professionals. We commit to fighting exploitation in the industry and prioritize paying arts students and semi-professionals the standard industry internship wage for their time. We commit to paying teachers the standard industry wage for courses run through The Cauldron. III. COMMUNITY OUTREACH We commit to engaging with amateurs and hobbyists in the community and providing them with courses and performance opportunities to enrich their lives. We commit to working with schools and education programs to bring the arts to students across the Netherlands. IV. EASILY ACCESSIBLE MUSICAL THEATER Amsterdam is home to between 80,000-110,000 expats who all speak English as a common language, and yet there are only a small handful of theater companies that put on shows in English. We commit to engage with the expat community, and contribute to the arts economy by targeting an audience that currently doesn't have many opportunities to enjoy musical theater here. Simultaneously, we aim to enrich the musical theater scene for the Dutch audiences as well. V. BRING A NEW ENTERTAINMENT MEDIUM TO THE NETHERLANDS We commit to challenging ourselves to find new and innovative ways to present the musical theater art form and engage audiences in an interesting and immersive way.
