Hi AllThe following is reproduced with permission from an email received I received from BYTC:The Boardwalk Youth Theatre Co. is based at the Mandurah Performing ArtsCentre. Which is a newly built centre featuring an 800 seater theatre; a144 seater theatre; an art gallery; various conference and rehearsalrooms; a box office; bar facilities and a professional staff to man it.All hiring costs are very reasonable and even more reasonable for theirresident Youth Theatre Co. i.e : BYTC and other non-professional groups.The co. has been "in action" for almost a year which is definitelyembryonic stages! We are still trying to create a format which workswell for both youth & committee.... will we manage to do whatgenerations have been trying for centuries - to bridge the generationgap? However, as co-ordinator I have a very free rein with great supportfrom the committee. To cut a long story short we would like to put out arather last minute call for interested directors to contact me on theemail below or supplied ph. number. We have access to a very largenumber of youth aged from 12 - 20 (age group expandable) who havevarying levels of theatrical experience and mostly a nice bunch ofpeople. Suffering from the usual factor of time I feel that I can notdo all that is required of me as well as create workshops that the youthcan really get their teeth into. Basically I am crying out for anydirectors that may want to work with the group on small cast and/orlarge cast performances. We do have funding available but obviously thatwould need to be discussed on a personal basis. Here is your chance as adirector to work in air-conditioned facilities; professional permanentlyset-up equipment; and a very willing cast & staff; with at leasttravelling costs reimbursed!! The drive from Fremantle is approx 35minutes from central Perth approx 50 mins (depending on traffic).I am very open to confidential discussions.... so please contact me asapwith any brilliant inspirations you may have!email address: rebelozone@hotmail.comPH: 08 9535 7513 or 0414 756 234Many thanksRebeah Ozanne
