Pantomime 2025 - Director Appeal
The CADS Committee are still in negotiation with KJAR about the staging of the 2025 pantomime. While it is currently unclear whether we will be able to put on the pantomime, the Committee are keen to hear from anyone who would like to Produce, Direct and Musical Direct should we go ahead. Auditions would need to take place in early October with rehearsals starting soon after. The Technical Crew will need to plan the set build in a new and creative way as we may not have as much storage space as previously. We also need a Set Designer, Safeguarding Coordinator, Costume Coordinator as well as all the other roles. If you're interested or have any ideas please do get in touch with the committee this month via [email protected].
