1. Arley Hall is situated in Northwich. It holds lots of performances like dance shows
and concerts. On the 12th and 13th of February Production arts will be crewing for the
A level dance performances that will be happening. Two dance performances will
happen andon average Arley Hall will hold 200 people each night. The show will be
split into two and will last around 2 hours.
Each of the students will have a specific job role; I was chosen to be a dresser. This
includes putting the dancers into their costumes and helping them if there is a
problem, for example, if the costume does not fit.
The only equipment that I may need is safety pins. I may need to pin something on to
the costume. A com is essential for me also as I may need to contact the other
dressers if there is an emergency or if necessary.
As a dresser, I will be responsible for being in charge of the dancers as it is our duty
to get them onto the stage on time and in the right costume. In order for me to know
what costumes are needed at what time, I will have a discussion with the wardrobe
mistress (Anna) as she is in charge of me.
I will also need to know the running plan; what rooms will I be situated in? When will
I be situated in there? When will I be needed? The manager for the whole of the
crew will be Paul, therefore, I will need to obey what he says to make the
performance work.
