On June 2nd we are, once again, performing Thick as Thieves but this time we’re getting competitive. We have entered this wonderfully funny play into the Wakefield’s Arts Festival and will be privileged to perform it on the wonderful Wakefield Theatre Royal and Opera House stage. This will be the 3rd time we have performed and we have been tweeking the script during rehearsals based on the reactions of previous audiences and how we felt performing it.

Well its arrived Wednesday 21st March, is opening night for Ladies’ Day.

Tips for Auditions (Taken from Acting in London) 1. Never ever be late.Make sure to never be late for your audition. Showing up right on time is late already — be there at least 15-30 mins in advance (you have lines to learn!) 2. No more apologies, for anything. Committing yourself to whatever you want to perform is showing your courage, so stay with it and do not apologise for whatever mistake you might make. 3. You’re there to perform. You’ve been invited to the audition — not forced to get there — as a guest. Come, do your job … Continue reading It’s audition time, here’s some final preparation notes……….Good Luck

The word “Characterisation” makes me squirm! “Ok, so who are you? Tell me about your character blah blah blah”. It’s not for me at all! So our first rehearsal tonight for Big Top Beauty and the Beast what do we do…….. characterisation. Basically tonight’s rehearsal was a question and answer session with people I hardly knew in regards to my pantomime character Russell. I was asked questions such as who are my parents? How old am I?, and who’s my best friend in the circus? I thought, shit, I don’t actually know the answer to any of these questions! So … Continue reading Theatre “Characterisation” #bigtopbeauty #bradford #pantomime
