Well…..Sarah and I have spent most of our time recently focusing on what people are
singing, or where people are standing on stage. However there is an awful lot more to think
about in the bigger picture.
We have a volunteer from the arts –Amanda Tipple, a local artist, who has joined us to
offer assistance on the arts side. She will be running some workshops locally with Mencap.
The work she does with them in their “after school club” environment will be used to
decorate the church during the performances. If you would like more information, just ask!
We have costumes to decideon –You will all be costumed in some way. whether you are
part of the main choir, principal cast or a philosopher. Once we have made a final decision
on costume, you will be advised straight away. That will give you plenty of opportunity to
find/borrow suitable items. Don’t panic –anything we ask you to provide will be easily
obtained, promise!
We have a stage set to build–we are very grateful, as we have been
Awarded some monies to help us fund this project, and this will enable us to build extra
staging as well as build the original set desired. If you are interested in helping with the
construction or painting of the set can you email
mandy@mask1.co.uk as soon as possible, as
we will be looking to get a team together fairly soon so that this part of the project can get
underway!
We need scaffolding–. Does anybody have contacts with any building/scaffolding
companies? This could help us in our approach to local companies so let Sarah or Mandy
know asap at rehearsals.
We are interested in Sponsorship –Does anyone wish to sponsor / promote their business
in our show programme? If you do, please catch Daniel (Jesus) and have a chat with him at
rehearsals.
