GETTING IT UP

PRESENTED BY THE EQUITY PROFESSIONAL PROGRAM
SUPPORTED BY THE PERFORMING ARTS CENTRE SOCIETY

6.30pm Monday 2nd May, 2005
Rechabites Hall Theatre, 224 William Street, N'Bridge

For those of you who got a lot out of the last event Equity Professional Program brought you, THE CASTING COUCH 2003, and were wondering when the next one was arriving, it's here!

GETTING IT UP is aimed at giving performers, writers, designers, creatives, etc. tips on mounting their show in the most cost effective and successful way. The Program is focused on running events at low cost for Equity members to develop their professional skills within the arts community and to bring performers together in a lively environment to discuss their craft and what matters to them.

The format of the night involves 9 panellists and a Q&A time followed by informal drinks at the bar. The panellists are award winning playwright, Reg Cribb; production designer, Nicholas Higgins; Naked Theatre Co. artistic director and Sydney theatrical agent, Liz Fell; publicity/marketing afficianado, John-Michael Swinbank; West Australian arts editor, Ron Banks; Hammond Insurance broker, Brendon Durrant; ArtsWA funding representative, Steve Shaw; president of the Equity Benevolent Guild and legal advisor, Jay Walsh, and executive director of PACS, Jansis O'Hanlon.

Not only is this forum about "getting it up", but more importantly how to "keep it up"! the panel will give excellent tips, key things to do to work towards a stronger sense of what is actually involved in independent theatre production at all levels. Judging by the enthusiasm of the Q&A time during THE CASTING COUCH not everyone's questions will be answered in the time allocated, but join the panellists for a drink in the Rechabites bar afterwards and keep the conversation flowing.

We hope that by coming together like this we can enlighten and propagate better and educated work practices to strengthen the artistry in all of us.
