Hayley Miranda, our Communications and Productions Assistant, is moving on to become an Assistant Producer at The Place. Congrats and good luck Hayley!
As Communications and Production Assistant, Hayley has worked across teams to make SDS’ programme happen and ensure that people know about it. Digital communications have been central to her role, but she’s also managed and created print publicity. She’s worked closely with artists – particularly those taking part in our Open Choreography programme (now replaced by Percolate) – helping with residencies and producing work-in-progress events.
Before she goes (and before the deadline to take up her role passes…) we asked her a few questions about being Communications and Production Assistant at Siobhan Davies Studios.
What have you enjoyed?
My favourite thing about this role is its scope. Everything that goes on within the organisation is connected to or key to communications. I get to be a part of the internal and external programme, the hires, the building… anything and everything that goes on inside and outside of Siobhan Davies Studios! I have also really appreciated the independence my colleagues have given me, whilst also guiding me when I need it.
The most important thing about it?
The most important thing I would say is building relationships with artists and audiences. I am constantly in touch with so many people both within and outside the building, and it is important to represent Siobhan Davies Studios well. This is also one of the best parts of the job!

Making a DELICIOUS chocolate and strawberry pavlova (picture below) for the summer BBQ… does that count!?
What are you doing next?
I’m going on to be Assistant Producer (Producing and Touring) at The Place.
A final word of warning for your successor...?
No warnings! The team is so lovely and care about your development. The building is a beautiful place to work and it is the perfect role to figure out where your interests lie.
