Shakespeare Open Stages project

Tempest in a Tea Cup or The Bard's Birds

Dates for the production are planned for 8th and 9th, 15th and 16th and 22nd and 23rd June, subject to venues being available.

The final audition is tonight and with what I have seen, this Shakespeare lark is much livelier than one might imagine. When the director of the Cleopatra excerpt says “Think Absolutely Fabulous, with Cleopatra as wealthy Edina and her ladies in waiting characters like Patsy” it gives one a completely new perspective!


Skills exchange at the RSC

Four lucky members are attending the performers' skills exchange in a week or so and three more the workshop for directors, stage managers and technical support. How good is that? We shall return bursting with ideas, so the March meeting will be an opportunity for participants to introduce other members to what they have learned; the April meeting too if time runs out.
