Want to be in our show?

Come and take part in an exciting new show – The Egg Shack, created by Red Herring Productions, commissioned by Landmark Theatres and happening in Bideford & Ilfracombe this summer!

We are looking for volunteers to join our community cast in Bideford and/or Ilfracombe, to work alongside a team of professional theatre makers and create an inventive theatre show in North Devon.

You must be over 18. No previous experience needed, although you will have confidence to perform in public. Enthusiasm, patience and a good sense of humour is recommended!

Ideally, you will be able to make most rehearsals and all performances in Bideford and/or Ilfracombe. However, if you’d just like to pop in for one session, then that’s fine too – please check the dates below…

Tempted? Go on! Give us a bell or drop us a line to find out more and sign up. Paschale can be contacted on 07885 980524 or paschale@redherringproductions.co.uk
