GET INVOLVED

CREW

Under our Production Manager, Adam Smith, we assemble an amazing bunch of talented individuals.

We usually work with two to three designers every year and have a dedicated Stage Manger, Lighting and Sound person for the whole season.

We also employ half a dozen box office staff for the season. Get in touch via Clive if you’re interested in working with us: clive@frintonsummertheatre.org

VOLUNTEERING

The Friends of Frinton Theatre are an amazing group of people who have been helping to support the theatre for over 45 years.

They not only help with fund-raising throughout the year but they crucially supply front of house volunteers who help tear the tickets, pour the wine and tea and flog the tea towels.

For more information please contact Sarah Philbrick: friendsfrintontheatre@gmail.com

CASTING

The Complete Works of William Shakespear

We start casting for the season every year around April. We send breakdowns out through Spotlight.

Our casting director is Hayley Kaimakliotis

We actively seek actors from all backgrounds and try to ensure that we employ at least two graduates in every season.

WORK EXPERIENCE

& PLACEMENTS

Every year we try to recruit Director’s Assistants. We’re looking for people who would like to throw themselves into the experience of putting on a show in a very short time. Each play takes ten days to rehearse and DA’s are an invaluable part of the process.

These placements tend to be sponsored and you get £100 a week and lots of biscuits. You work very closely with a director and their team of actors and technicians. It’s a truly amazing baptism of fire.

Contact Clive or Emma - our Production co-ordinator emma@frintonsummertheatre.org

HOSTING

Every year we are tasked with providing accommodation for actors and crew working on the season.

If you live locally to Frinton-on-sea and you are able to provide a bed to one of our cast and crew, please get in contact with us on
