EVEN is transforming the backstage industry by building an all-inclusive career pipeline, a conduit designed to guide, empower, and provide resources to aspiring professionals from all walks of life.
Hidden by Design
Part of a backstage professional’s job is to fade into the background so that others may shine brightly. That low profile makes it tough for someone without resources or connections to find their way behind the curtain. As a result, the backstage industry has a diversity problem.
EVEN's answer to this is the construction of an all-inclusive career pipeline, a conduit designed to guide, empower, and provide resources to aspiring professionals from all walks of life. Our aim is to transform the backstage industry, bringing it a diversity that matches the kaleidoscope of talent on stage.
Our Pipeline
These four pillars form an end-to-end pipeline from first awareness to first gig and beyond.
