Show of Strength Theatre Company are running three workshops for writers living in the BS3 postcode area. The sessions are being held at the Southville Centre on the 11th and 25th November and the 9th of December 2008 from 7- 9pm.
Show of Strength will help you develop a five minute monologue (approx 1000 words) with a focus on local, independent shops and retail experiences. A selection of these works will be professionally produced in a series of exciting performances in the shops themselves on the 17th of January 2009.
Workshop places are FREE but they are limited. So to book your place please contact the Southville Centre on 0117 9231039 or email us info@southvillecentre.org.uk
All monologues should be entered by 12 noon on 6th of January 2009 for the selection process. Please feel free to send your entry in even if you are unable to attend a workshop.
Entries to: Trade IT local, SOS, 74 Chessel Street, Bedminster, Bristol, BS3 3DN.
Opportunities Volunteers
Show of Strength often employ volunteers during productions. This is usually as stewards/ box office staff or programme selling. Sometimes we have very exciting envelope stuffing opportunities during the marketing period. If you are interested in volunteering for us please email us your details, but please be prepared not to hear from us until we’re in production.
Opportunities Young People
Show of Strength support the training and education of young people in theatre.
Opportunities Writers
Show Of Strength is unable to read unsolicited scripts. With funding largely project based we work with writers project by project. See WRITERS for those we have worked with, or whose work we have produced.
In 2006 we produced work by 20 Bristol writers for our WAITING project at The Southville Centre. We are now developing a range of projects for 2007-2009, and plan to commission new work from a variety of writers (from Bristol and beyond) over the next three years.
If you’d like information about furture projects send us an email so we have your address. DON’T send anthing else at this stage. We’ll email information when we have it, and put it here on the website.
