UK Theatre Network - From Hollywood to Cannes

Good day to you, Friend

9am on a Saturday morning. I always enjoy getting up early to tell you all about the options you have to entertain yourself this weekend, and as ever, you don't have to look very far to find it. The reviewers, marketers, promoters, directors and cast of the UK's finest theatre performances have already published their articles online at UKTheatre.Net

All I need to do is cut and paste and tidy up an email and send it out to around 10,000 people at a click of a button. How simple can theatre marketing get ? Of course it took many years to find 10,000 theatre lovers around the UK, but nevertheless you're here now, and hopefully telling lots of others.
In addition to theatre, I know that you really like great performances in all formats, whether that's standup, gigs, TV, ballet, opera - so, I've been working hard recently to bring you a new series of 5 minute video features.

Coming soon, I have the musical delight of Josh Groban, intense drama from Julie Walters and Kirsten Dunst, new comedy from Daniel Ribgy from Lilies and an insight to the talents of Stephanie Waring from Hollyoaks. If that's not enough to whet your appetite, there's clips of Life On Mars and The Royal Ballet.

It's all part of a regular series that I'll be producing, directing, filming, writing, editing and publishing for your viewing pleasure. I will include material from members of UK Theatre Network. If you have an upcoming performance and have accompanying video material, then let me know. I am also considering sponsorship and advertising, in order to help fund the productions.
Ooh.....and I forgot to mention. I entered my first short film "MAKING IT IN HOLLYWOOD" into Cannes. I can hardly believe it, but I'm delighted that I took the jump. The key message in the film is to get out and make it ! Whether that's in acting, presenting, coaching, voice overs, directing or producing. Everyone I interviewed were taking the bull by the horns and getting out and doing it. It's all about the experience you gain and learning from that to improve your next performance, or next production, and the sooner you start the quicker you'll learn.

Exciting times. Have a great weekend.
