The Vagina Monologues

The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)

SnowWhite and the Seven Vertically Challenged People

Would you like to join in the fun of FEST too? We always need willing helpers for every show that we do. There's lots to do; building scenery, painting it, making or altering costumes, rehearsing the dancing, line rehearsals, preparing sound effects, planning and setting up the lighting, making the tea (very important!).

If you have talents that you would like to put to good use, and to be in an English-speaking environment while you're having fun, do get in touch with us - we´ll be happy to welcome you to the team!

Three one-act plays were presented recently.

See panel left for further details:

Try Not to Step on the Naked Man
By Sean Michael Welch,
(directed by Eric Robinson).

One day when Barker comes home, he finds not only his lovely wife Donna waiting for him, but a naked man in the living room. And his boss is expected momentarily.

Death in Heels
Written and directed by Paul Domineske.

Death in Heels is an irreverent look at life and death, in a dark comedy, touching on themes like male-female relations, the role of the ageing in society, and the futility of fighting the inevitable.

Chook Chook
By Fiona Farrell (directed by Joanna Marquet).

4 post feminist chickens try to survive in confinement, each using her own tacts to get the job done. A comedy.

CREW NEEDED!

THE PRODUCTIONS NEED MORE THAN ACTORS - volunteers are needed IMMEDIATELY in the following areas:

STAGE MANAGEMENT - may require more than one individual because of the nature of the production (3 different plays with 3 different directors)

OVERALL PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT
Overseeing production budget, ensuring rights are obtained, arranging rehearsal space, arranging production meetings and coordinating the team. The amount of work that must be done is inversely proportional to the number of people you can get to help!

MARKETING/PUBLICITY MANAGEMENT
Overseeing design, printing and distribution of hard copy posters and flyers and electronic advertising (web site, email, links, etc.), possibly securing sponsorship

HOUSE MANAGEMENT
Overseeing ticket and program printing, reservations, ticket sales and distribution/tracking of comp tickets, enlisting performance night ushers.

Anyone who has the time and energy to take on more than one of these tasks is welcome to do so, but the more folks who help, the less work for any one individual. Assistance is also needed with: lights/sound, costumes, make-up, running crew, set design/construction/painting, ticket sales, ushers. The work must begin immediately - posters to be designed and printed, rights to be secured, sets to be built, etc. FEST NEEDS YOU!
