THE INSATIABLE, INFLATABLE CANDYLION
“A long time ago, In the Kingdom of Candy, a lion once roamed the streets...
Howled on the hour, whined on the minute, roared every second day of the year.”
The Emerging Director position is a brilliant opportunity for new directors to spend some time working side by side with more experienced directors. Last year Siwan Llynor supported Louise Ann Wilson on The Gathering/Yr Helfa (have a look at her blog posts here to find out what she was getting up to).
The Emerging Director is a full-time role and a key component of the creative team. It requires attendance at all rehearsals, the production week and all performances. There may well be opportunities to be involved in production meetings prior to the official start date of the project.
The next opportunity for an Emerging Director will be on The Insatiable Inlfatable Candylion. An immersive, festive treat from the creative minds behind the genre-bending Praxis Makes Perfect: Super Furry Animals frontman Gruff Rhys, writer Tim Price and director Wils Wilson team up to create a show like no other - a theatre gig for audiences of all ages, inspired by the seminal album Candylion.
Featuring inflatable fat cats, a dalmation on drums, pink candyfloss, blue audience members, a penniless penguin, and all led by Gruff Rhys himself.
Venue: Swalec Stadium, Cardiff CF11 9XR
Key dates:
Rehearsals commence: 16th November
Tech week commences: 7th December
Preview: 16th December
Press night: 17th December
Final performance: 2nd January
National Theatre Wales are offering a £2000 bursary for this position. This should cover any travel, accommodation and subsistence costs incurred as a result of taking on the role. NTW will strive to help find the best solution to travel and accommodation if you are not based locally.
