It’s not paid and it takes up a great deal of time. Two reasons – I really enjoy it, especially when you have a good part like the dame and working with a big group of people, collaborating and creating a show with other like minded people And the other reason is that I can hone my theatre skills, whether that be lighting, sound, costumes, and stage craft. It is so difficult to learn these things any way other than doing I also elevate my reputation for performing – my ad is on the back of the programme which may lead to work in the future. Take away tip – join your local amateur dramatics club – it boosts confidence and creativity within each person. Wish me a “break a leg” – come see the show if you are local to Croydon and watch / listen to this before the 18th January – https://www.sdclub.org.uk    Visit the website: https://www.thisweekwith.co.uk Drayson Design Website – https://www.draysondesign.com The Creative Tinker Website – https://www.thecreativetinker.com Facebook: https://www.thisweekwith.co.uk/facebook Youtube: https://www.thisweekwith.co.uk/youtube * Full transcript will be available on the website.
