Joining the Hessle Theatre Company

Please see the page 'About HTC' for details of the productions the Company stages throughout the year.

To maintain a high standard of artistic excellence, we ask our members to audition for a specific musical production, play or concert.
These usually take place around the following times:

But we're not only looking for singers and actors/actresses, but also people who are interested in directing, props, back stage - in fact, any aspect of theatre/musical production.

If you are in a production you may occasionally need to buy some footwear and special items of clothing, but most are supplied by the Company.
Your subscription (due from 1st July in any year) covers the post, telephone calls and the general running of the Company. It covers costume and venue hire and also insurance for all members in rehearsal and performance at all the venues we use. Rehearsal rooms are very costly so we have to use the time to our best advantage!

Generating ticket sales and promotion for all productions is part of your commitment to the Company; we are continuously looking for corporate sponsorship of any kind to help us achieve our very high production standards.

We do have a social side to the Company and, in addition to the productions, various social activities occur throughout the year; we like to organise trips to regional theatres and West End shows.

If you are interested in joining the Company please feel free to contact the Membership Secretary for more details, and/or an informal chat about the activities of the Company.
