Tom's blog about being one of the crew at Peter Pan
Over the last few days myself along with several other Yew Tree members put aside some of our time this weekend to help out as stage hands and crew for the Wakefield Theatre Royal production of Peter Pan, which was adapted and directed by our very own Sarah Osborne…And it was a very enjoyable and lovely experience to have been a part of…
The cast of young actors and dancers all performed so very well, and where all professional indeed…Most of the time, it is usually me that is on stage acting along with fellow Yew Tree’ers, but being backstage shed some important light on how much work goes into staging such a production like Peter Pan…I’ve only done some small backstage work from time to time now and again, but not on such a scale as a professional theatre like that…All of the Theatre Royal crew worked very hard to make the production the best it could have been…And one person who worked just as hard as everyone else was Alice, acting as Stage Manager to the whole production, and she did her job extremely well…As did everyone else that helped out over the last few days…Well done everyone, good job
This weeks guest blogger is Aaron 17+, Saturday Morning Thornes and Heights cast member... So I thought it would be interesting to have a 'Yew-Tree Quiz'. I honestly can't remember why I thought this would be good but I thought it would be a laugh. So anyway, these questions are more or less based on how Yew Tree influences you in ways of creativity, imagination and speech I suppose too. It could also just show how long you've been at yew-tree. 1) Are you over come with glee when you hear you have a tick next to your name? 2) Do you feel more confident than you did before you started YTYT? 3) When watching a performance are you mentally checking the good and bad points of it? 4) Have you taken a risk (performance wise)? 5) Have you used the word brilliant in a both positive and negative manner? 6) Have you ever seen Sam behind the wheel of a green Mini? 7) Have you ever been to Nostell Priory? 8) Do you own any Yew Tree merchandise? 9) Have you auditioned for Connection...
