Introducing our Adjudicator for the Wellington Theatrefest This Saturday.
Adjudicator: Ruth Sarratt
In common with many of us. I was “into” my school drama productions, then jobs
and family took over my time. I returned to theatre when my children were older
and was thoroughly hooked.
Then followed many years involved in local community theatre groups – acting,
stage crewing, directing, set building and designing, making props, making the tea
– you have to do it all in community theatre.
I have come to believe that live theatre is a very special way of experiencing being
human, and that it should be available to us all. I also firmly believe that we can
always learn something new and improve our theatrical endeavours; a bit of timely
advice or a thought-provoking question from an objective observer can do wonders
to elevate a performance.
Whether we are performers or audience, all of us play a part in achieving that
which is called “the magic of live theatre”. So buckle up, folks. We’re on our way
