Hi There Team,

Congratulations on the excellent preparatory work most of you have done so far. I know it can feel, at times, as if you are juggling elephants, but don’t worry - that’s showbiz folks! It will all come together. I have been impressed with the level of committment you are showing to the overall concept and to supporting each other and I am confident that if this continues, you will create an outstanding piece of theatre!

So, now we move from “Planning” into “Development”. This is where you should start to see the fruits of your planning labour pay off. Our director will begin rehearsals, sets will start to be constructed, costumes will be fitted and altered, the lighting and sound designs will be created and all of the pieces of this jigsaw will start to come together. Most of you will already be aware that I have appointed Jono as Stage Manager as his acting role was too small to justify its inclusion in his folio. I will assist him, but key production team members must make sure you communicate with Jono at every stage as he will be calling the show in performance and will need your support and input. I have no doubt that he will do an outstanding job for the company.

So, good luck for the week ahead. Please take advantage of your tutorial sessions, and if you haven’t had your first audit completed yet, please make time to see me at a lunchtime asap.

On with the show!

Scotty
