As many of you will be aware, Burnt Ash Drama Association have been forced to postpone our April production of Plaza Suite. This was due to circumstances beyond our control, and luckily the Hall we hire has worked with us to ensure we don’t get cancelled. Unfortunately, this change of date to June does not work for our original backstage and technical team. We are now missing key team members. The production is now set to take place on June 1st, 2nd & 3rd. Could you help out?
We’d be delighted to hear from anyone who could fill any of the below roles:
- Light Operator
- Sound Operator
- Stage Manager
- Prompt
The Light & Sound operators would be required on the following dates (although any earlier rehearsals may be beneficial to the operator):
Sunday 28th May (from 6pm)
Monday 29th May (from 7pm)
Tuesday 30th May (from 7pm)
Thursday 1st, Friday 2nd & Saturday 3rd June (from 7pm)
The Stage Manager & Prompt would be required at the above rehearsals but the sooner they can attend rehearsals the better. Rehearsals are Tuesday, Friday and Sunday nights.
As you can imagine, it has taken an enormous effort to ensure the production doesn’t get pulled and to retain the cast, so any support you can offer would be greatly appreciated. If you are unable to help, we ask that you consider any other names you may be able to pull out of the hat – feel free to pass this message along to your contacts in the theatre world.
Thank you in advance for your help and consideration.
Best Wishes,
Simon Clark
