Lighting Workshop
Ever wanted to know more about the dark art of stage lighting?
An entirely practical day for Members (or prospective Members) interested in getting involved with lighting and electrics (LX). Everyone is welcome - complete beginners, newcomers to Network, or anyone wanting to refresh their knowledge or check out our new systems. This workshop will leave you confident to set up, program and operate lighting for a production at Network Theatre.
Topics covered will include:
Rigging lights
Power, Dimmers and Patching
Programming and Operating the control desk
Types of lanterns and their uses
Colours, Gobos, Special Effects
...and much more!
The day will be structured around the requirements for the upcoming production of Outward Bound, but there'll be plenty of scope to vary it around the interests of everyone present.
Free of charge to Members or prospective Members.
If you'd like to come, or would like to know more, please email Dan Young, Network's Chief Electrician, at lx@networktheatre.org.

Maintenance and Clean-up Day
We need to carry out regular maintenance at the theatre to keep it going, so we schedule a number of working days each year. I'm hoping that you will be able to come along on the day to help out. It need not be all day, even a few hours would help - we start from 10am; and some of us may well go out for a meal in the evening afterwards.
The work usually includes clearing out the unwanted stuff that seems to breed backstage, tidying up what's left, giving the place a good clean up, decorating and maintenance of the premises, and maintenance of the various technical systems.
