RESOURCES

In addition to our Green Guides, we have collated some resources and templates that may be of practical use during the production process for theatremakers! Keep an eye on our ever-growing collection.

This is a brief guide to which materials are most and least sustainable, taking into consideration supply chains, water and energy usage, extractive resource use, and third-party accreditations. It also suggests some products and brands to consider using on your next project. We’ve utilised a range of sources for this, so if you think we’ve gotten something wrong please contact us and let us know!

This is a live directory that the STA team updates regularly with the latest information about what, how and where to manage a variety of different production elements after the curtain has fallen on your show. If you have any additions you’d like to see included in this directory, please contact us and let us know!

Creatives and crew—this is your way of taking stock of the materials you’re using in your show, which in turn makes it easier to consider sourcing, usage and end-of-show processes! This template has been adapted from The Theatre Green Book UK (2021). For more information regarding what kind of goals your production should be aiming for, how to calculate percentages, and other excellent resources, head to The Theatre Green Book UK website.
