Howdy. I’m Rachel Kinchin, a freelance arts marketing manager who loves an adventure, making ideas happen, engaging audiences and being part of something special (and I talk about food a lot!)

I’ve joined the NTW Communications Team for the next four months. This makes me super excited because the freelance thing is a big new adventure for me. Having worked at The Riverfront in Newport for seven years managing marketing campaigns and after two 6-month summer stints as Head of Marketing at Assembly Festival, Edinburgh Fringe; I have returned to my homeland to make some magic happen.

With this magic in mind, I am pleased to be writing this blog to tell everyone about the #SillyKings

Once Upon a Time…competition we’ll be running this weekend. The power of the fairy tale spans the ages, igniting the imagination of big kids and little kids alike. Christmas shows are a huge part of the British festive season and we at National Theatre Wales want you to help us create some Yule-tide magic.

The NTW gang would love for everyone to get involved in an Interactive Social Media campaign around the concept of a collaborative storytelling game, entitled, ‘Once Upon a Time…’ It’s really simple. It’s really silly and we’re crossing our fingers that it will be really FUN.

On Friday 13 December at 12pm, we will post a status update inviting you all to continue the story about our Silly Kings. We will invite online audiences to Tweet or Facebook the next line of the story, which will then be combined into one giant story and pieced together into a silly video filmed with the good folk of Cardiff at the beginning of next week. Everyone involved in our slice of silliness will be entered into a free prize draw for a family ticket to our Christmas Show, Silly Kings (worth over £60) on a night of their choice (subject to availability).

It will go a little something like this…

“Once upon a time” - National Theatre Wales

“There was a Silly King” - @katherine_ann

“Who liked donuts” - @cornershop and so on…

Tag #sillykings and follow the hashtag!

I look forward to seeing the silliness commence…!
