For the 3rd year running,  the fee for this years’ Stage Experience is £145 per place. This must be paid by Friday 18th July. It is possible to pay in 3 installments of £50, £50 and £45 if you wish. Please contact the Box Office directly for details. This covers the full 2 weeks of the project and a souvenir T-shirt, Script, costumes and tuition. Please make cheques payable to LIVE NATION (VENUES) UK LTD.

Let everyone know you are a member of this years’ Stage Experience with your Boogie Nights T-shirt. Each participant will receive one T-shirt on Admin’ day. Please complete the order form when you get your congratulations pack with your size. You can order additional T-shirts for £10 each by using the form in the pack or purchase them from the foyer on performance nights.

We will be operating a Tuck Shop during the Stage Experience. This will be located near the Sussex Hall.

Sandwiches from £1.50, drinks, crisps, chocolate and fruit starting at 50p will be available to buy at lunchtime. Lunch will be in the Sussex Hall.

You may bring a packed lunch instead if you wish. It is recommended that you bring a bottle of water with you every day clearly labeled with your name.

We are always in need of Chaperones and Wardrobe Assistants and appeal to parents/guardians for their help throughout Summer Stage Experience. Chaperones are essential for the smooth running of the project and assist with the supervision and queries of the members. Chaperones will receive a free ticket to a show of their choice per shift they do.

Wardrobe Assistants help with the production of costumes under the guidance of the Wardrobe Mistress. We are therefore interested to hear from parents/guardians who may be able to spare some free time. If you think you may be able to help with either of these important roles please call Tracy on (01424) 46 22 87.

The project main objective is to be enjoyable. However, The Summer Stage Experience holds a high profile in the local community and each member represents both the Stage Experience and the White Rock Theatre. The theatre can also be a dangerous environment if not treated with respect. For both these reasons we do expect a certain standard of conduct to achieve a pleasant and safe experience. 

On Admin Day (Sunday 10th August) we will be giving a Health & Safety talk and also a tour of the building. You will be given paperwork on our Health and Safety procedure and Behaviour policies. We will be asking you to sign a form to confirm that you have received the relevant information and training and will abide by the Health and Safety procedure and Behaviour policy. We operate a ‘3 strikes and you’re out’ policy. 

There is also a form for parents/guardians to sign to say that if your child does not abide by the Health and Safety Procedure and Behaviour Policy then this could result in your child being asked to leave the project and the loss of your fee. 

PLEASE NOTE: Failure to adhere to these standards during the Stage Experience may result in the loss of place and fee.
