Help to build a stage set for village show

Live theatre is back! - and help is needed to build the set for the stage.

Neil Simon's Rumours will be staged at the Community Centre for, and on behalf of, the Milford on Sea Community Centre in October.

To allow this show to go ahead there is a major set build to achieve.

Over the last few months the building of the stage extensions has been completed and shortly the flats will be completed.

These are/will be held in store until we need them in October.

To bring all this to a successful conclusion, it will require 3 days of stage and set building at the Community Centre. 

The set builder and Stage Manager, Grahame Goodyer, estimates that he will need at least 4 people to help on each day. The village show producers are therefore looking for volunteers to put themselves forward to assist on each day.

This is manual work and some of the stage items are very heavy, so we particularly need able-bodied people prepared to help lift heavy loads. However, if you can use a screwdriver or hammer, there are jobs for you to do as well.

Days volunteers required to help are:-

• Friday Oct 22 from 12pm through to 5pm
• Saturday 23 Oct from 8am through to 8pm
• Sunday 24 October from 9am through to 6pm

We accept that most people will not be able to put in a full day but if you are available to help, for any period of time on any day, we would ask you to put your name forward.

If you can help, please can you contact Grahame by email at grahame@goodyer.org or call/message him on 07860 587272.
