The Playhouse was one of 13 cultural and community-based organisations awarded a share of £500,000 to "develop the creative skills of Londoners".
Southwark Playhouse, which was awarded £48,462 in total, will work with people who are not in employment, education or training to create ‘pop-up' events across the area.
Training in event and production management will be offered by the Playhouse and Giraffe Live and will include lessons in budgeting, marketing and technical training.
