Open Evening!
Thursday 5 August 2010 @ 7.30pm
St John's Church Hall, Cadewell Lane, Shiphay
From script selection to backstage jobs, what thought and work goes into the Society's Season?
After the one act night and festival entries, is it time to look beyond our season of four productions?
What improvements would you like to see?
We are ready to plan for the future, but how do you want to see the Society grow?
This evening will be as much about the social as the business side of community theatre. After short talks about the roles in the Society we will listen to all points of view in both small and large group discussions ranging from how to sell the plays to whether we want more chairs and new curtains. Tea and cakes will be provided.
