Oh, What a Lovely War!

11:00pm, Wed 10th October 2018–Sat 13th October 2018, at ADC Theatre
Michaelmas Week 1

APPLICATIONS OPEN TO ASSISTANT PRODUCE

Applications are now open for the role of ASSISTANT PRODUCER

NB: This role is only open to incoming freshers.

“Theatre should be grand, vulgar, simple, pathetic – not genteel, not poetical.”

A century on from WWI, how do we feel about it? How do we come to terms with its horror in an age in which horror is commodified and fetishised? How do we successfully horrify an audience?

If these questions intrigue you then consider applying to be the Assistant Producer for OWALW! This role requires absolutely no previous experience in theatre, just commitment and enthusiasm :)

The show is on from 10th-13th October, so this will be an opportunity to spend a fun, fast-paced fortnight getting to grips with the responsibilities of a producer and witnessing this stunning production come together! Typical tasks might include laminating and putting up posters, doing some cheeky Facebook publicity and helping to set up and clear out on the nights of performance.

To apply, just send us a short email at zhb20@cam.ac.uk and njqs2@cam.ac.uk. In your application please include:
-Why you want to be involved
-Any relevant experience
-Why you think you’re suited to the role

Don’t hesitate to shoot us an email with any queries!!

The deadline for applications is MIDNIGHT FRIDAY 21ST SEPTEMBER - happy applying!

Deadline: Friday 21st September 11:59pm
