Hi,

It seems to me that small/fringe/bizarre theatre companies can sometimes have problems getting reviewers along to see and write about their shows.

So here's a solution. I'm a freelance writer based in Melbourne. I love theatre. Depending on my availability, I am offering to attend your performance and write a review, which I will then attempt to get published either in a print publication or online.

I am not just trying to wangle free tickets!

If you're interested and want to see examples of my published work, check out my website: craigscutt.com

Obviously I cannot guarantee that reviews will be published. Editors are gods, not me. Nor will I promise to write glowing copy if, in fact, your work is **insert unfavourable adjective here**. By the same token, I am not prone to looking for negatives just so I have something to write about. I would simply aim to a write short, well-informed, balanced and personalised response to your work.

My contact details are on the website. Look forward to hearing from you. --- Craig@craigscutt.com

Hi Naomi,

That's great. I've actually had a few interesting responses to this post.

Theatre companies will be pleased to hear that I've received expressions of interest in publishing reviews from Melbourne Stage and Broadway Australia.

If you think your work is great and want the chance of having a review done of your performance, drop me a line at: Craig@craigscutt.com
