Few rehearsals have resulted in some fabulous photoshoots for as many of the Ben Hur actors as could attend the shoots at Brixham Theatre last Sunday after rehearsals. Photos by Laura Jury at the South Devon Players and Paul at Brixham Theatre Tickets are on sale at https://www.southdevonplayers.com/box-office.html for Brixham Theatre and all other show venues.

Fabulous early call for photoshoot at Chestnut Community Centre with the two lead actors in our stage production of Ben Hur. By this time next week the posters will be ready. A huge thank you to Jenny for doing the photos and to Carol for sorting Judah Ben Hur’s outfit. Third photo is Spirit- a large and beautiful elderly stray dog who joined us for a little while (now reunited with his humans) #theatre #benhur #brixham #actor #actorslife #regionaltheatre #britishtheatre #torbay #acting #photoshoot #modellife #stage #performingarts #creative #dog #doggie 
Well we have had a fabulous day of productivity. A great rehearsal for the Great Gale of Brixham 1866, and our youngsters in the team got to do some product modelling of children's books for a local author. (check out her books at cazgreenham.com) So, other than the last albums of photos, paying the cast & crew, etc, Macbeth is over. What an incredible close to our tour of Macbeth, and 14 months of hard work. To everyone who joined us on the journey, you were incredible. From the lows of struggling to keep going to the highs of winning a theatre award in New York, this has been an incredible run, finishing with a public performance and a schools-only performance at Brixham Theatre, in our home town, where the first run of shows began last winter. The audience feedback has been brilliant, and it has been a completely brilliant experience. We are now working on a local history production; The Great Gale of Brixham 1866, and then the next Shakespeare show is already looming on the horizon: A Midsummer Nights Dream. There will be a few more Macbeth updates, as other photos and show videos come in, and as we get further news, reviews and messages about the show. :) Photos in this post by @Angela Harper of www.instagram.com/angeharperphoto/          On Saturday and Sunday we had the cast photoshoot for the vast majority of the cast, and these photos will be going out this week (some already have) attached to press releases marketing the show! Many thanks to Brixham Theatre , one of our show venues, for letting us shoot on the stage in the morning! Photos by Andrew Barnes and Laura Jury. Shows are Friday May 31st, and June 1st at Brixham Theatre, and then June 7th at the Barnfield Theatre in Exeter. Our box office page HERE has links to all the relevant tickets! Book today!                             A great day yesterday with rehearsals - having finished workshopping the 5 acts, we now have started in on blocking the acts. As we were working on Act 5 yesterday, we started blocking that too.
Last sunday was a brilliant day - what a turnout of amazing new and established people - and what a standard of audition. Pretty much everybody was deserving of a lead role, which made selection incredibly difficult! We are just waiting to hear from everyone with regard to accepting thier roles, but as it stands we have been able to fully cast the entire production, and it is outstanding! We also have a new lovely crew member, Andrew, who is helping with things behind the scenes and he got some great audition photos!          We have launched our fundraising shop, featuring clothing, homewares, phone cases, much, stationary, and more, with beautiful designs from our hometown of Brixham. More items and designs will be added soon. Order direct from our Redbubble shop, for these exclusive items. They are ont available in shops, and can only be obtained from our Redbubble online store.

Some in-show photos by the amazing Nicole Rosen, from our Jack the Ripper theatre show.           We have had a very busy past week, performing for Brixfest, with a show about the 1866 Great Gale of Brixham, starting the pickup filming for Mordred, and fundraising as always! So sorry about the radio silence. A look behind the scenes at filming pickups for Mordred    |
