It will be held at Startforth Community Centre, formerly Startforth Primary School, at 7.30pm on Tuesday, February 6. Everyone is welcome to attend the meeting to hear more about the production and the opportunities to contribute and take part.
This summer the Barnard Castle based company turns its attention to Macbeth – Shakespeare’s classic tale of witchcraft and vaulting ambition. Laurence Sach, who will be directing the production, said: “The Castle Players always begins its productions with an open meeting.
“It’s an opportunity for new people to find out more about the company and its work as well as for members old and new to meet and chat.
“The summer production is an enormous undertaking and needs so many people both on-stage and behind-the-scenes, and this year is particularly exciting as it marks the company’s 30th summer Shakespeare production.
“It’s a friendly and welcoming group, so whether people’s interest is in acting, helping with set, costume or stage management, or with many of the other marketing and front of house activities, I’m really looking forward to meeting people on February 6.”
Macbeth will be performed at The Bowes Museum from July 10 and July 14.
The Castle Players was established in 1986 and produced its first summer Shakespeare production in 1989.
Since then the company has produced 29 annual Shakespeare productions in Barnard Castle, as well as touring classic tales to community centres and village halls during the winter.
Mr Sach has previously directed Henry V for the Castle Players’ 2016 summer production, along with Pride and Prejudice, Victorian Values and Oliver Twist for the group’s winter tours.
Macbeth will be his fifth production for the Castle Players. For more details, email info@castle
