The Games will be staged at The London Theatre on Thursday 12^th and Friday 13^th July. It will bring together three writers, three directors and a company of actors for three new plays inspired by the theme “the games”

It would be a small commitment time wise with the lighting designer being needed on the following days –

Thursday 12^th: Tech and dress from 12pm. Performance at 8pm, finishing approx 9pm.

Friday 13^th: Performance at 8pm. Can get into theatre from 6.30pm onwards.

Prior to the 12^th we’d only need to meet up once or twice (max) to discuss ideas and these dates and times a totally flexible depending on availability.

Unfortunately this is an unpaid position but we are keeping time commitments to an absolute minimum.
