Don't forget the Chest Waxing Fundraiser! 27th May, 8pm, STaG Room.
1) Proposals
Ciaran McHale proposing 'Translations' by Brian Friel
Amy Ralston proposing 'Peribanez' by Lope de Vega
'Peribanez' is the new G12 slot, after much deliberation - F. Andrew volunteered as board contact/representative
Please put up STaG Ball posters, interjects D. Taylor
2) Dracula
Congratulations to everyone involved.
c. £300 loss on the production, as we did not apply for the production fund.
H. Sloan & others stated we should 'not drop the ball on this one again', especially considering our financial situation at present.
There was also no Board rep for the production - this needs to be stipulated for each production.
3) STaG Ball
Please put up posters, and encourage people to reserve tickets at stagballtickets@googlemail.com
Design, programming and music all appear to be happening swimmingly.
4) Theatre Bookings
H. Sloan been in contact with Anne at G12 again.
We do not have the Monday of the STaG Nights slot or the 2nd G12 slot.
H. Sloan, T. MacKay and R. Jones agree that STaG Nights will be stressful, but do-able if we are organised and positive.
We might need to consider another venue for the 2nd G12 slot.
H. Sloan and T. MacKay discussed purchasing of lights - this will be looked into, along with the SRC Top-Up Grant.
5) Website
Nothing happened this week.
M. O'Neill meeting with S. Archibald to discuss the 'code(html)' of the website.
H. Sloan to email Josy to thank her for her work on the website so far.
M. O'Neill is wanting to begin again with the website.
R. Jones, P. Mannion and M. O'Neill discussed creating a wiki for STaG - this is to be looked into.
