Show Updates

Sleeping Beauty

  • Tom is assured by the writer, Rob, that the script will be completed by the end of June. And if it isn’t he will unleash the wrath of the producers on him.

Entertaining Mr Sloane

  • We now have the performance rights, which cost £340.80  Lucy to settle this up

  • It is the 50th anniversary of the author, Samuel French’s, death, so this should hopefully increase audience prospects.

  • Paul to send Megan a blurb for the show

  • We have a costumier for the show, Jan Hernen, who did the costumes for Audacity, we still need a pair of leather trousers, or an actor with their own pair.

  • We still need a Props person

  • Set-wise we need a vintage sofa and an old record player

  • Paul to write a list of set pieces needed, which he will get the STA to make early on.

  • Richard Farrer to Stage Manage?

  • Flyers to be made, which are relatively cheap and a good way of getting people in for an Alma show

  • Program for the performance? Megan to look into it.

  • Sponsorship to cover the cost of the program? Usually only about £25 needed.

  • Make sure that the rehearsal schedule is available at the readthroughs
