The Wheel of Life: Stage version on hold

Dear Spiders, unfortunately we have not been able to cast or find enough people to support the production of Wheel of Life. So for the moment the stage version is on hold with the hope that the players can stage it at a later date.

In the meantime however, Anthony Richards had agreed to direct a radio version (with some adaptations) in the form of podcasts.

Jeff is happy to manage the recording and editing. This allows, those who don’t feel they can learn lines, to take part and enable flexibility for involvement to suit everyone’s timetables without prolonged rehearsal times.

It is also hoped that music and song will be included.

More information to follow post AGM and in the New Year.

Best wishes and season’s greetings.

Young Farmers Group Drama Competition – Director Producer Needed

We have been approached by a local Young Farmers Group, as they hope to enter a drama competition. They are looking for someone to direct/produce, but they do have plenty of willing actors. They are, however, lacking someone to pull it all together.

The first stage of the competition is in February 2020, and the chosen play needs to be 30 minutes duration, which must include setting up/ props etc. The cast must include a minimum of 8 actors, but other than that, the rules are flexible. They are thinking along the lines of something humorous.

So, is there a budding or an established director/producer who would like to guide and assist Young Farmers?

It would certainly be a “first’ for RSC, but could also lead to increased membership, especially younger people. Good publicity and goodwill never goes amiss!

Anyone interested? Indeed, it would be the sort of activity, where more than one Spider could be involved, sharing out the responsibilities.

Maureen Cooke, RSC Chairman.
