Production team call-out
Production team wanted for Spring Awakening
Recently formed Edinburgh-based amateur musical theatre company TBC Productions has put out an open call for the production team to steer it through its second production, Spring Awakening, in June 2018.
TBC Production’s aim is to produce lesser performed ensemble shows with small casts that are rarely seen on Edinburgh stages outwith the Fringe. Its first production was in June, with a staging of Little Shop of Horrors in the Festival Theatre Studio.
The company is currently accepting notes of interest for production team roles, Director, Musical Director and Choreographer, in preparation for auditions beginning in January 2018 – although no dates have been confirmed at present due to the impending appointment of production team.
The show will take place at The Studio at the Festival Theatre from Wednesday 27 to Saturday 30 June 2018 with a Saturday matinee.
The musical of Spring Awakening is based on the 1891 play by Frank Wedekind. Duncan Sheik’s rock score juxtaposes the 19th century setting and subtext weaved throughout the script. It deals with many issues teenagers currently deal with including depression, anxiety and sexual awakening but within the constraints of the period it was originally written.
a wide variety of shows
Committee member, Thomas McFarlane told Æ that his hope is to continue to draw in new members to the company and produce a wide variety of shows containing varying casts.
He said: “It is amazing the responses we have already seen regarding auditioning and we are hoping this will continue in the run up to auditions”.
The deadline for applying for one of the production roles is the Sunday 4 December. Anyone wishing to apply should email TBCProductions.Info@gmail.com as soon as possible. The show will take place at the Festival Theatre Studio from Wednesday 27 to Saturday 30 June 2018.
