LPHS students Pippi Miller and Josephine Devereux have joined the Fortune Theatre School Ambassador Programme.
As Fortune Ambassadors they will have the opportunity to meet and observe theatre professionals at work. They will have the chance to get inside the rehearsal room to see the rehearsal process in action and talk with the actors, director and stage manager, along with interviewing costume, set, sound and lighting designers to develop a good understanding of the process of putting up a professional theatre production and what a career in theatre could look like. The Ambassadors also get to see the production with complementary tickets to the opening night performance. Fortune School Ambassadors are responsible for sharing their experiences at the theatre with their fellow students and community, writing reviews and promoting theatre.
The Ambassadors sat in on the first rehearsal of the Fortune Theatre's upcoming production, when the cast and crew come together for the first time. They saw the set designer’s presentation, heard the very first read through of the play and were asked their opinions as contemporaries of the play’s teenage characters at the table discussion.
