Currently seeking a stuntman for a short film. The stunt requires the individual to drop through a plastic skylight and land on a padded couch two metres below. The individual will be bound at the wrists and have a pillowcase over his head. Pay: $100. Waiver required to be signed. This is a non-union film. An army medic will be on site. Anyone mad enough to be interested, write to anupstartcrow@hotmail.com Cheers.

You make some great points, Andy and we look forward to working with you on Othello!
However, I just wanted to pick up on your comment about companies spending the budget on full glossy posters and programmes, etc. At least in our case, for Macbeth (and will also be the case for Othello) ALL our wonderful full-colour printing was obtained by me for FREE as in kind sponsorship from the Printers that we use regularly. So NONE of our budget was spent on these things. Also all the actors got an equal share of the profits, with Class Act getting no share at all.
I think you'll find that most of a small theatre company's budget these days is eaten up by venue costs - but your point is taken! I think we should all try to budget for a fight director if the production requires one.
