Outside work I am the Technical Director at Bromley Little Theatre. Our vibrant 108 seat theatre was established in 1938 on its present site which was converted from an old Victorian bakery.
BLT is in a fairly unique position within the UK’s amateur theatre world, in that it has its own fully-equipped theatre complete with sound and lighting systems. Add to this the versatile staging area, a 108 seat, 12-row auditorium (with flip-up West End-style seating), and you will find yourself left with an extremely wide scope for performing a variety of events and productions, including being the home to the Bromley Blues Club.
My role is to ensure good communication between the Board and the backstage teams:
- Wardrobe
- Props
- Set Design & Construction
- Set Painting
- Stage Management
- Lighting
- Sound
- Live Music
As a person who thrives on learning, and hopefully understanding, new technologies, the experience I have gained here means that I can work comfortably with people more expert than me in their fields.
