Mon, 17 July 2000, 12:22 pmEeighteen community theatre people met yesterday for a discussion on Publicity.
Sarah McNeill started the ball rolling by giving us the do's and dont's from an Arts Editors' viewpoint, basically apply the KISS principle - Keep it Short & Simple. Sarah & Barbara Zahari produced several 'good' and 'bad' press releases (one of the not-so-good being one of mine!) John Flood, ABC Community Theatre reviewer came along too and thought we should organise a follow up to the afternoon.
A lively discussion started over afternoon tea and many valuable ideas were exchanged between participants, Publicity officers met each other and shared experiences.
The next LINK (or possibly the one after) will give a full report on the afternoon.
