A unique opportunity to start from a blank sheet and advise / input into the building of this rather special project. The Floating Stage is a brand new initiative to provide a unique entertainment venue on the Scottish Lowland Canal network from Edinburgh to Glasgow,(and all points in between) We are looking for volunteers with an interest in stage design, production and direction to help shape the facility and to support the project in achieving our vision. The Stage Manager(s) / Designers will probably have experience in theatre, direction, production, scenery, lighting, am dram, event management etc. but none of this is essential. An enthusiasm for the project and empathy with our ambition will be far more important. The Floating Stage will be predominantly run by volunteers, for the benefit of local communities, social enterprise and 3rd sector organisations, as well as up and coming and established performers of all genres of entertainment, hence we are needing to provide a one size fits all (but flexible) solution. Full details of Our Vision and Proposals are detailed on our web site ~ www.thefloatingstage.co.uk. and the concept document therein. As the project becomes established, it is envisaged there will be considerable liaison with the construction (boat building) team, event management team, major sponsors, and the fundraising team, among others.
