Attracting Youth Audiences

This month myself and three students at Cardiff University are working on a project with NTW on Marketing Theatre. One of the key areas we are looking at is reaching and attracting youth audiences.

Do audiences have a place in the NTW Community?

Myself and three students are working on a marketing project with NTW and a key area we are looking at is the role of theatre audiences in the NTW Community.

This is great as an industry network, wherein you can connect with colleagues and like minded souls on theatre productions and share skills, experiences… Continue

Day 141.1 - The Persians Day 8 - Chapter Arts Centre

The fine details of the text are worked through painstakingly. Linking the language of the play to detailed choreography. I watch the material develop and try to imagine it within the location. An impossible task as I have never been to the place. I did try, a drive by, from The Greystone's Motel near Trecastle, over the public road that bisects the military land, to Tirabad. The village was sat high up on a hill to the right, several miles from the road. It looked inviting, one of my… Continue

Day 141 - NTW06 Commuting - Arriva Trains Wales

I join the throng of early morning commuters as they make their way between Shrewsbury and Cardiff. Somewhere between 6 and 9 in the morning are the best hours of the day. The light is different, sharp, grey, blue. The day is unsullied by the lethargy of the late riser. Newspapers sit straight upon the tables, anticipating creases. I sip coffee from a stainless steel flask, a cumbersome addition to my luggage, it is necessary however... paying £1.50 for a cup of instant coffee with UHT… Continue

Kiwi Knights : Holland

"Racist!" she screams " you're a racist!"







I had just woken up into the hazey night at Antwerp, my eyes were

glazed and my mind was still very much vacant from the effects of some

of Amsterdams more notorious tourist attractions.



The surroundings were alien to me, and the coach we had decided to return to Cardiff on had become skewered across the main road.







The scene seemed obscured with much thanks to the constant screams of abuse… Continue
