New Production Checklist

Both the director and producer will need to attempt to complete this form as best they can and as soon as their chosen production has been accepted and confirmed by the committee. These details will appear on the website, poster, programme, and tickets. They will also be used for advertising through our mailing list, social media, and local press. Some changes can still be made later, but key information needs to be provided before the production can be advertised and everything really needs to be finalised by the time the rehearsals start.

This form can be sent again with just the additions or changes at any time. Do not fill in the same details all over again. You will be sent a copy each time for your records or you can check what has been put on the website for this production. A checklist showing cumulative progress will also appear below this form.
