2010-05-04T15:36:00.002+01:00

We are on the hunt for groups of singers who are open to trying some choreography to enter our competition.

The programme will be going out on Channel Five from mid July for 6 weeks. If successful, once they have filled in the online application form (link below), the group would be needed for one day for a non televised audition in late May (near your hometown). Then successful groups will be needed for two live shows (heat and final) in late July/early August. The live shows involve five acts and the public vote their favourite act through to the grand final each week. After five heats the five acts that won their heats compete against each other in the final. As you can see, its not a knock out show so they wouldnt need to commit each week and would be given dates in advance.

This competition is for singing groups who have more than 5 members per group and our minimum age for the competition is 14. Please go to http://www.dontstopbelieving.tv to get the application form and apply for the show.

If groups are keen to apply but waiting to get together to film the footage for the application, please fill in the application form ASAP and get that in to us and then send the footage in as soon as it is able via the application form or post. Footage recently shot of the group, but not specifically for Dont Stop Believing is acceptable. If we have a completed form off the group we can begin the application process and write a note of when to expect the footage.

Footage can be posted to:
Emma Bickers
SHINE TV
Primrose Studios,
109 Regents Park Road,
London,
NW1 8UR

Just to reiterate interest is high and time is running out so fill in the application form at http://www.dontstopbelieving.tv now to register your interest, the footage can then be uploaded or posted after.

A final note is we are looking for a vast range of groups to apply. From young to old, established vocal groups, choirs and musical theatre groups to friends and family with a mutual love of singing and dancing who want to give it a go; we welcome anyone. We will have a fantastic team of experts on hand to come help with vocals and choreography should the group get through to the semi-finals.

Here are some handy hints to help any applicants.
Film your group performing your application song ( nb this can be only 1 song and choose this song wisely as we have had lots of interest)
Dress to impress

If you have any members who are under 18 make sure their parents are aware and have given their consent.

We cannot offer any group an audition until we have received a completed application form and it is accompanied by a video.

Please return your completed form as soon as possible to ensure an audition in your preferred city as audition slots are likely to be filled quickly. Interest in the show is high so dont delay!

You can contact me directly on 0207 985 7083 or email to emma.bickers@shine.tv

Jesus Christ Superstar, Dunfermline, 29-Apr to 01-May

2010-04-18T19:11:00.001+01:00

Jesus Christ Superstar is coming to Dunfermline's Alhambra theatre for four performances on 29-Apr to 01-May (with Saturday matinee).

The show - which many consider to be Lloyd Webber's most original score - is seldom made available to adult amateur societies. To mark the show's 40th anniversary, two of Scotland's most exciting amateur musical groups - The Melodramatics of Edinburgh and The Limelight Productions of Dunfermline - have joined forces.

The result is a show that is shaping up to be one of the most powerful theatrical events you are ever likely to see on the amateur stage.

With Iain McInnes playing Jesus, Bobby Mitchell in the role of Judas and Kirsty McLaren as Mary Magdalene, together with a top-notch ensemble, this is an event not to be missed.

The Alhambra Theatre is in New Row, Dunfermline, and has ample free parking close by. If you've not seen the theatre it's well worth coming to visit, as it has promise to become one of Scotland's top theatres in the near future.

You can order tickets (£13 for adults or £11 for concessions) from the Alhambra box office on 01383 740384, or from www.ticketmaster.co.uk

Please do come along - I am certain that it will be a night of theatre you will enjoy and remember for along, long time.

CHESS IN CONCERT at the macrobert

2009-08-05T16:32:00.003+01:00

The macrobert cinema will be showing CHESS IN CONCERT on the 5th and 6th of September - would anyone like to come along with me to see it?

Okay, some background. This was a concert recorded at the Royal Albert Hall to mark Chess' 25th Anniversary. With stars like Josh Groban, Idina Menzel and Adam Pascal, the concert was a sell-out for each of the two nights that it ran.

The concert will be released on DVD, but will be shown at a select few cinemas nationwide before its UK release. The macrobert will be the first.

I am hoping to go to the concert on 5th September at 2015. Ticket prices are just £4.95. Anyone interested in coming along with me?

If you're interested, please let me know at http://www.sabos.co.uk/contact/index.php

If you don't know the show, it is one of the most exciting and powerful musicals of the 1980s. Written by Time Rice, Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaues (the two men from Abba) it combines a wide range of musical styles, to tell a love story that is set against the background of international politics.

Please let me know if you want to come along. (If you mail me during the week of 8-16 Aug I won't immediately reply; I'm at the ROSS summer school - I'll be in touch when I get back from it)

STV’s The Hour show launches ‘Talent on Tour’

STV’s live daily show, The Hour, is launching a Scotland-wide talent hunt. The team are looking for the most talented people, young or old, across the country as part of their exciting new Talent on Tour feature.

Over the next few weeks, presenter Vicky Lee will be touring Scotland to uncover some of the best, brightest and quirkiest unknown talents that Scotland has to offer.

Whether you have the voice of an angel, you’re a budding child star, a contortionist, a magician or have better moves than Fred Astaire – The Hour team wants to see your act.

The Talent on Tour team will be visiting Glasgow, Aberdeen, Inverness, Edinburgh, Ayr and Dundee and the following venues and times have been confirmed so far:

• 12pm, Tuesday 21 July at Silverburn, Glasgow
• 12pm, 23rd July at Bon Accord St Nicholas, Aberdeen
• 12pm, 3rd August at Arran Mall, Ayr
• 12pm, 6th August at Ocean Terminal, Edinburgh

Further details will be announced shortly on The Hour website.

Highlights from the tour will be shown weekly on The Hour throughout summer.

Vicky Lee, chief talent scout for The Hour, said: “This is a fantastic opportunity for the talented people of Scotland to show off on the telly! We’re hoping to meet a whole range of people with weird and wonderful talents – there are no restrictions, the only requirement is talent. Who knows, we might find the next Susan Boyle. So come along and strut your stuff – you never know, you might go down a storm.”

Web site updates

2009-07-16T09:32:00.002+01:00

Ken sent me some information about Meet Me In St Louis, which I have now added to the web site. Please click the logo on the right-hand side of the web page, or go to http://www.sabos.co.uk/currentShow to see it.

Anyway, we now have a booking registration form on that page, so you can start selling tickets :-)

What happened to the web site?

2009-06-17T13:04:00.000+01:00

I don't know how closely you've been looking at the web site, but some strange stuff has happened since I last looked here.

Firstly, some updates that I'm sure I put on line have just gone away. That was the "what our next show will be" stuff. No idea where that went...

The other was that our "Latest Blog Updates" went away. Now this is actually quite clever stuff.

Our blog is hosted by Google. Our web site is hosted by 1and1. When you come to the home page, a little program running on the web server asks Google for the latest blog updates, picks out the interesting bits, and then shows them on screen.

Unfortunately, Google has changed the way it gives us back the latest blog updates. It's changed from RSS to Atom. Which means that the code that used to look "here" for certain information has to look "there" - where "there" is somewhere different from before.

So i think I've now got it working, though I am aware that I'm missing a date for blog posts. That will come soon, I hope!

Social and Brain Storming Evening - 05-Jun

2009-05-30T12:20:00.001+01:00

This came from Mandy - I think it's a great idea and hope to be there. Please come along and join us!

A few of us got together after the AGM and decided it was time for positive action. Therefore, we'd like to see as many SABOS members as possible in the TAPPIT HEN DUNBLANE, from 9pm on Friday 5 Jun, to chat, see each other, and brainstorm some ideas for FundRaising activities and Social Gathering plans for the coming year.

All ideas welcome, and even if you haven't thought of any yourself, please please come along and help us flesh out the ones I'm sure everyone will be having! If you need to contact us for more information, I can be reached on 07910 524333, or mandy.milly.molly@gmail.com, and can pass along any ideas or opinions!

Wizard Of Oz in Dunfermline - September 15-19

2009-05-23T09:54:00.000+01:00

Anyone fancying a night out in September could do much worse than going to visit our friends in Dunfermline, The Limelight Productions. Not only are they putting on The Wizard Of Oz, but they are the first amateur company to be performing in The Alhambra Theatre.

The Alhambra used to be a theatre, then it became a cinema in the 1920s, then it became a bingo hall. Now it's been reclaimed as a theatre, beautifully refurbished, and is now one of Scotland's largest theatres. So it's well worth a visit!

Limelight is a new company, who are putting on some great shows and establishing themselves as an innovative and exciting company on the Scottish amateur musical scene.

Look forward to seeing you there!

From: Jamie Smith

Hello

I am a student at Stirling University who is working with a small group to make a radio drama. We are currently looking for actors to appear in it and ,even though there is no singing involved, I wondered if any of your members would be interested in auditioning for a part?

We are looking to cast two people (one male and one female) to a play a father and a daughter who are both reporters working during a terrorist attack. We would like to hold the auditions at the university on the 4th of November but we are happy to arrange something different if we get some interest.

Could you please pass my email address: jss04@students.stir.ac.uk on to anyone who is interested. Also, if you know of any other drama societies in the area that I could contact I would be very grateful if you could send me their details.

Thanks

Jamie Smith

CALLING ALL AMATEUR ACTORS & DIRECTORS ! !
THEATRE SUMMER SCHOOL 2008
A weeklong drama training holiday
Swansea University 10-16 august

Wales based charity, the Drama Association of Wales (DAW), announces the launch of its latest training project – THEATRE SUMMER SCHOOL 2008. A week-long residential training holiday designed for amateur actors and directors. Reap the benefits of a week of working hard and playing hard at our Summer School. And all for the price of a last minute bargain holiday!

BEING BOLD: Steps Towards Braver Productions Summer School 2008 will explore plays with BIG ideas. Working in groups, participants will discover the poetics and structure of the language of plays that ensures vital theatre.
So often during short rehearsal periods, amateur theatre companies are forced to work to tight deadlines. The advantage of a week-long summer school is that it allows the artists to experiment with new, challenging and exciting rehearsal techniques that can invigorate a pressured rehearsal period. The course will encourage the artist to be brave and experiment with new rehearsal techniques that could lead to a more ambitious theatre making process.
Using techniques of Brainstorming, Unitting, Actioning and the discovery of short term and super objectives alongside character motivation the participant will investigate a number of classic and popular texts for large groups of actors with a view to creating exciting, relevant theatre.
At the end of the week there will be the opportunity to show back the work created.

This year’s tutors are Phil Clark and Rebecca Gould… Phil Clark is returning to tutor the 2008 course after excellent feedback from his course last year. Phil has worked extensively in the UK and Europe as a Director and established Britain’s largest annual Youth Theatre Festival. From 1990 to 2006 he was Artistic Director of the Sherman Theatre Company in Cardiff where he prioritised new writing and commissioned over 100 new plays. Phil teaches regularly at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, Actors’ Centre London, Tishe School of Performing Arts New York and the National Association of Youth Theatre’s Summer Festival.
Tutoring alongside Phil will be Rebecca Gould who has specialised in directing new plays. Until recently she was Associate Director at the Theatre Royal Plymouth. Currently she is a Learning Associate at the RSC. She has also recently directed as an Education Associate at the National Theatre.

We offer discounts to DAW Individual members which means that you can book on to this course for as little as just £420 And that includes tuition, accommodation and all meals!

To book your place on the course or for full details on the course, please contact Gary Thomas on 029 2045 2200 or email him at (omitted)

The idea behind this is fairly simple. I occasionally get things sent to me that I think would be of general interest, but don't really justify a full web page on their own. So from now on I shall publish them here.

If you have anything you want added to the blog, please let me know and I shall post it here.

So how do you read the blog? You can click "subscribe" below, and then Internet Explorer will check for any changes to the blog every day.
