Culter Theatre Club

Culter Theatre Club needs you!

Culter Theatre Club has a busy schedule this year with another run of the very popular “Allo Allo” on the 7-9^th of September, tickets are available on-line this year, and details can be found on our website and Facebook pages.

Straight after, we will be working hard on our annual pantomime, which this year is “Snow White”, keep a look out for our audition notices around August this year.

To do all of this we need a great cast, director, producers, musical director, choreographer, stage crew, dress makers, make up artists, lighting and sound technicians, set builders and painters, prop makers, stage mangers etc.

For all the people you see on stage, there are just as many back stage and behind the scenes, each one playing a vital role in each production.

Every year we get a lot of people auditioning to be on stage, far to many to give everyone a role, however we only get a few people coming forward that want to help backstage.

With the natural progression of people through the club we always find ourselves with plenty of cast but not enough people willing to direct, produce, choreograph and all the other roles the club needs to continue putting on the productions of the quality we are so famous for.

It is now getting to a stage where we are finding it very hard to put on productions.

We have a brilliant cast, a magnificent stage, state of the art lighting, sound and projection facilities. We play to 1200 people every year for the Panto, hopefully some of those people can help us.

We urgently need some brilliant Directors, Producers, Choreographers, Musical Directors and all those other vital roles if we are to continue to function as a club.

If you want to help, or know someone that can, please get in touch with me for an informal chat, I’m happy to show you the facilities we have.

TICKETS ARE NOW ON SALE for our Autumn show of 'Allo 'Allo.  This hilarious comedy is once again being brought to life by Culter Theatre Club, after we first performed it in 2012.  We've got some familiar faces in the cast, and some wonderful new performers to get you laughing - just watch you don't snort your red wine while eating your Brie when you see René's sausage!

If you've been before you'll know what a great show this is, so let your friends know so they don't miss out - we expect tickets to go quickly as all the previous shows have been sell-out performances!

For the first time this year, we're even doing online ticketing so you can book tickets through our website partner "Ticket Tailor", by debit or credit card.

Performances are 7th, 8th and 9th September and start at 7.30pm. It'll be café style table seating, and you can bring your own bottle and snacks (we'll provide nibbles too!) - then just sit back and enjoy the show!

By popular demand, we are looking at doing another run of Allo Allo again this year, the first week of September. We will be holding OPEN AUDITIONS on the 3rd and 4th May at 7.30pm at Culter Village Hall.

We're looking for new cast members to play any of the following parts:

• Lieutenant Gruber
• Michelle of the resistance
• Helga
• Major Klinkerhoffen
  
• Various french peasants
• 2 Airmen

If anyone is interested in any of these roles, or knows anyone that would be, please come along to one of the audition evenings!

Stage experience is not required - just enthusiasm! If you have always thought about being on stage now is your chance.
Audition pieces to read will be available on the audition evenings.

Friday 17th March 2017 - AGM and Panto DVD night

It’s that time of year again when we have the Culter Theatre Club AGM. We have had a few members leave us this year and we are looking for some new members to join the committee to allow us to continue putting on productions to the high standard we are known for.  The club members have a wide range of talents, from acting, singing, set painting, costume making, lighting and sound, painting, set construction and prop making. If you feel you can help us in any way, whether back stage or on stage we need you.

The future of the Club rests with  the people that run it, and we currently do not have enough people to do that. We urgently require Directors, Producers, Musical Directors and committee members for the club to continue.  

We will be holding the AGM before the Panto DVD night for the cast. The AGM will run from 7.30pm until approx 8pm with the Panto DVD screening following on immediately after, finishing at about 10.45pm.  I would be grateful if we could get as many of the parents of the cast to attend the AGM as possible.

If you are interested in joining or helping us please come along to the AGM, I look forward to seeing you there.
