This year I've decided to take my own solo route as 'A Gentlemen Presents...'. and perform a solo piece named 'István'. The piece isn't a cabaret piece, nor is is a theatre piece. It's neither. The piece is a autobiographical look into my past relationships. The idea is present different forms of magic through songs, video and stage performance. The idea is in my head but I need someone to help me make it sense; a writer with vision on pushing the barrier is what I'm after. The job is unpaid, however all profits will be shared so if you are director too this would help, to keep costs down. Look forward to hearing from you and discussing further about 'István'. Tommy.

During the rehearsals we will ask you to prepare the six actors fully for singing to large audiences up to 500 people outdoors. All singing will take place with the actor facing out towards the audience. Our songs are written for entertainment and reflect the character of the performer. We work with many actors who are not classically trained singers. Hence there is some need in rehearsal to work on vocal strength and technique. During the rehearsals, you will be working alongside the Director. The MD will need to meet regularly with him and since he has been working with the company over several shows, the MD will be directed about rehearsal timings largely from him. There will be negotiation to fit in what the MD needs throughout the rehearsal period. There are also other constraints on the rehearsals such as photo shoots, costume fittings, set runs and props work, choreography and blocking. The MD will have to fit into these constraints. As well as vocal strength, all the songs need to be taught to the actors. You will prepare a CD or recording for the actors of the music and their parts. Alongside this, each rehearsal with an actor will begin with a simple vocal warm up, designed to gently bring the actor's voice up to strength. We suggest a 10 minute warm up. This warm up is the same warm up at every rehearsal, designed by the MD. By the end of the rehearsal period, we expect that this warm up will have become second nature to the actors and will give them enough training to warm up their voice before each production. This is largely for the actors who have not had such training in the past. This method is subject to the knowledge and skill of the actor in musical theatre and is negotiable between the MD and the actors. We respect actors who have their own private warm up which they carry out each day. During the final weekend of performance it is the job of the MD to be present for three days. The MD will then play for the Dress Run and the Dress Rehearsal. They will need be available during the performance period to speak to the actors or accompanist about any concerns they may have or any concerns about the performance. At all stages of this process, the final word comes back to the Producer and the Composer. The MD will go on tour with the actors and accompany the performances for the duration of the run.

Applicants would need to be available during the run, for the tech and dress rehearsals on 11th/12th/13th March and it would be useful if you could attend a number of rehearsals in the period 18th February to 10th March. The position is a profit share role but will provide valuable experience of working in a leading Fringe venue on a fantastic play (last seen in London in 1966) with a dynamic and friendly team of experienced theatre professionals. Our two previous productions have both been profitable. The role will involve working closely with the director, stage managers, and lighting, sound and set designers. Mrs More dreams of her son Frank becoming Headmaster at a top public school. The world, however, seems to have other ideas. If he is ever to realise his mother's ambitions, Frank must overcome a rogue washing machine, a pair of missing trousers and a trio of lusty middle-aged women... Channelling the spirit of Monty Python and The Goons, Roger Milner's brilliantly surreal and witty comedy follows one man's efforts to realise his destiny, whatever the world throws at him. See www.silver-thread.co.uk for more details. We look forward to hearing from you.
