Q&A with Claire Jane Williams NYTW14 Production Member

Claire Jane Williams - Freelance Stage Manager




The things I wanted to know before applying to the 'National Youth Theatre Wales' to become a Production Member



Is it okay if I don't have any previous experience?
Yes as long as you have an interest in theatre or art and are willing to learn!



If I get something wrong will I be in trouble?
Not at all, everyone is in the same boat, mistakes happen and we learn from them.



What if I don't know how to use equipment?
Don't panic, there is always someone around who does and they will teach you.

Will there be anyone to help or guide me?
Yes each department has someone to help and mentor them through any problems that arise.



Will we meet the cast and crew before we start the course?
Yes you will meet a lot of peers at the auditions anyway, but then there is also sometimes a taster weekend before you go on the course.
