MRS RED IS DEAD! - 16/03/00
For this, I was the Stage Manager but I also took on other roles/duties. My work with regards to M.R.I.D. was from the pre-production stage to post-production stage and involved, in rehearsals, creating a prompt book, making notes of furniture, scenery and props required and making a ground plan of the set. Outwith rehearsals my tasks were, sourcing the required furniture, scenery and props, recording music, researching the era of the play and liasing with the director/drama tutor. On the actual night of the performance, I organised the furniture, props and scenery of the set, I then managed the house lights, the sound fx and incidental and dramatic music elements of the show.

MACBETH - 10/3/00
How can a play be cursed?

UP BY THE MOUNTAIN - 22/02/99 (Being Updated)
This was a 20-minute improvised production devised by adults with severe learning difficulties/disabilities from a short eight-line poem. I was an Assistant Director to this production and my objectives were to encourage communication and social interaction skills, develop cognitive and motor skills, develop social and emotional behaviour, encourage creativity and imagination, build confidence and self esteem of all students. After having only been around with this group for about eight hours in total (approx 1 hour a week), I was surprised at how quickly I managed to achieve some of the above aims. The final performance was really good and showed a good development in the students abilities and understanding of the given situations.

BREAKERS - 28/08/89-2/9/89
As part of a Youth Drama Project that operated in North Ayrshire I became a member of K.I.D.S., (for four months) which led to a one-week performance run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe at the Bedlam Theatre with a play called 'Breakers'. We operated from the theatre at the Harbour Arts Centre in Irvine, where I travelled to every Sunday and I was a very lively member of the group, always managing to participate in a creative and imaginative way. I never had any prior experience of rehearsals or performance, nor any knowledge of theatre in general before joining the group. I also wasn't a very confident person to start with but I was quickly accepted and encouraged by others in the group and became a very enthusiastic member.

In the production which was set during the mid-eighties, I played two parts, a Protestant in the first half and a Catholic in the latter. The show featured a lot of choreographed dances and showed a love/hate relationship between a group of Catholics and Protestants. We were all heavily involved in promoting the show during the day, and throughout my stay there I'll never forget the moments we shared before, during and after the shows.

We all felt a great sense of achievement after performing at the Edinburgh Fringe and although we just managed to break-even, I came away from this experience with a craving to act in more theatrical productions, but sadly the group folded as people pursued different paths towards their individual careers. At this time I had looked upon acting as an interest/hobby than a career and I too chose an alternate career path.
