This has been a very successful year. We performed two full-scale musicals to the people of Shropshire. Our first show, Ghost the Musical, attracted sell out audiences and many new members who have continued to develop and contribute to the group. Our second show, Sunshine on Leith, was a premiere production for the people of Shrewsbury. Not only was it successful in terms of sales (almost selling out the larger capacity Main Auditorium at Theatre Severn) but this show also attracted a number of new members.We also successfully launched a beginner’s class called ‘Musical Mondays’. The intention of this was to raise the company profile and bring new memberships to the group. Musical Mondays ran bi-weekly for several months and was successful in finding the group some new interest, many of whom went on to perform in our full-scale musicals.Also, during this time, SMTC performed at the local Oktoberfest event held in the town. This gave the opportunity for a number of our members to perform in public without the fear of being in a larger full-scale musical, which can be intimidating for beginners.Organising an event such as a musical creates so many opportunities for people. We have provided an environment that is of huge benefit to our members, and not only performers. For example:- one of our members became a director for the first time for Ghost The Musical- we employ local musicians and technicians- we give opportunities for new people to try stage management and sound and lighting- some have developed talents in wider skills such as managing digital software, marketing, graphic design, set design, budgeting... the list goes on.A few testimonials from new members that joined in the period:"Everyone was so welcoming and encouraging, I instantly felt part of something special.""I have been looking for a well-established theatre company to join and to finally tread the boards again. SMTC was a perfect choice!""I joined SMTC to be part of a theatrical community in Shropshire after relocating from Man-chester. My favourite thing about SMTC is comradery.""I joined SMTC to be able to embrace a new challenge and I've loved being able to create something incredible with a talented group of local people.""Thank you for welcoming me to this incredible company! I have been a part of a number of amateur dramatics groups in my life but this company has made me feel right at home from day 1! Thank you, it means a lot to me!"Brief show reviews:"Despite a few inevitable opening night hiccups, SMTCs Ghost The Musical has everything... romance, danger, heartbreak, mystery, the supernatural, laughter, great music, and most of all, emotion. I defy anyone to come away without at least a lump in their throat!. The standing ovation I witnessed at the end said it all!""Emotions were running rife at Shrewsbury’s Theatre Severn last night as SMTC began its 100 year anniversary celebrations with Sunshine on Leith, this gritty, heartfelt, feel-good musi-cal, set in Edinburgh and featuring music from world-renowned The Proclaimers.This tale of friendship, family, love and heartache has been beautifully pulled together by Director, Rik Pover-Shaw and is superbly performed by a cast all perfect for their roles."
SMTC regularly communicates to its members and the wider community about its activities via social media and our website. We are a fully inclusive group and make this clear in our communications, we want to accommodate anyone with an interest. During our productions our show programme always gives new people the opportunity to come and join.The group regularly meets with its members and all are given the opportunity to give feedback to the Directors about how they feel the provision can be improved or how it can benefit them.Regular meetings take place between the Directors and the companies support group ‘Team SMTC’ these meeting allow feedback to be shared and changes made with the intention to be open and inclusive whilst putting on memorable shows for our community.Our productions are marketed regularly via social media, our website, press releases and radio, we do our very best to ensure that our community is aware of our productions.There are plans in the next trading year to improve this feedback system by giving Stakeholders the opportunity to provide feedback via annual questionnaires.
