This is a terrific opportunity in a beautiful theatre. We produce exceptionally fine theatre with outstanding people. We provide our audience with a well-balanced non-musical season of comedies (mainly), mystery and world-class drama, plus three plays for young audiences. Producing eleven plays in eight weeks with a strong AEA and non-union acting company supported by a talented, professional, technical and design staff is excellent training, good for the resume and exceptionally rewarding. It is also long, hard work which everyone shares. Our audience is well-educated, with a certain eclecticism to their theatrical tastes. This gives us the opportunity to do, for example, Dancing at Lughnasa, My Three Angels, Harvey and Frankenstein all in one season.
