Outside work I am the Technical Director at Bromley Little Theatre. Our vibrant community 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.
