Directors Wanted!

~ Join Us! ~

Many of us have been involved with amateur (and sometimes professional) drama for many years, but some have no experience in the field whatsoever yet bring all sorts of talents to the group.

Some help out backstage during the week of production, some may be designing and making costumes and scenery for a couple of months, the actors rehearse twice a week for about four months and the Director and Management Committee work all year to draw everything together.

The Arcadians draw their players from all over Gloucestershire and from Oxfordshire and Wiltshire.  Auditions are held in October and rehearsals begin about Easter time, with a more intensive rehearsal period before the performance week.

Auditions are open to all-comers and no roles are pre-cast.  And there is always space for those who prefer non-speaking roles but are keen to join in with the excitement and challenge of performance with one of Gloucestershire’s longest-established open-air Shakespeare groups.

If you would like to help with any of the following — or would you like the chance to learn — please do contact us.  Maybe your skills or interests are in:
•
acting or in helping to train young actors
•
artwork and design
•
business skills (including financial analyses, databases and websites)
•
contract management
•
costume design and tailoring (including armoury)
•
choreography (including dance and movement)
•
front-of-house management (including refreshments)
•
marketing and publicity (including liaison with advertisers, sponsors and printers)
•
make-up
•
music (both composition and performance)
•
props and special effects, sound and lights
•
set designing and building
•
stage management
•
video production

— the list is almost endless!  But everyone's contribution is valuable in helping the Arcadians to do what it does so well now even better next year.

If you would like to join the Cotswold Arcadians please contact Elizabeth Berry on: 01285 711 714. You could be just the person we need to help make the next performance the greatest to date. In which case - welcome to the Cotswold Arcadians!

The Cotswold Arcadians is a non-profit organisation.
