August 2017 will see the SSA Summer showcase, where 3 experienced members – Hazel Aspden, Mike Jupp and Courtney Appleton – will step into the directing role for the first time. Amy Barlow has been busy pulling this together, starting with the expo on Sunday 9th July, 2pm to 4pm at HQ. In Amy’s own words;
“We have three guest directors – each bringing to life a diverse range of scenes for this performance at HQ. From an exploration into the art of seduction to the role of conflict in American drama… there are parts big and small available, come and find out more. Or if you can’t make it, just note your interest on a post and we will be in touch ! Time is tight and so it will be a first come basis rather than formal auditions.
You would need to be free on Thursday 31st August for the performance.”
This promises to be an exciting opportunity both for the directors and for cast members, with scenes coming from A Midsummer Night’s Dream, What the Butler Saw, An Ideal Husband, A Streetcar Named Desire, All My Sons, Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf and Martin Crimp’s Attempts on Her Life. The performance night at the end of August will be a member’s only event, so don’t miss out, and follow the progress of the production on the SSA Facebook pages.
