1. One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest Post Mortem
S. Gregson congratulated all involved. The play was a massive success with many new members taking part. W. Burnes thinks it went well overall but had a few issues communicating with the board. He felt let down by the board rep, L. Taylor, and didn’t have all the necessary information. C. Felstead suggested board rep should not be a technical manager because of conflicting interests. E. Burckhardt suggested redefining the venues manager role to account for some of the complications which arouse during One Flew. S. Gregson thought the role of board rep needed to be re-evaluated. The board rep should attend more of the rehearsals and have more of an involvement overall. Everyone involved with the production should be introduced to the cast and production team. J. May and S. MacDonald agreed, stating the board should make more of an effort to be at social events and introducing themselves to new members.
W. Burnes thought pack from last mainstage director was very useful and will write one for the next director. J. May suggested that 2 rooms were always necessary for auditions to avoid crowding hallways, C. Felstead agreed and thought booking rooms as early as possible was essential. D. Hahn believed the board rep should attend auditions.
S. Gregson will contact the Ramshorn regarding donations for programmes.
2. No Way Out
S. MacDonald reported that rehearsals were going well and the piece was on track for the performance at the Aids Awareness on 22 March. J. May reiterated importance of board rep position and felt more dedication was required.
3. Miss Julie
D. Hahn raised concerns about noise over the 24 hour rehearsal bothering neighbours. D. Hahn has contacted GUST and is awaiting more information. The capacity has been set at 7, with potential to increase should the live feed from GUST be possible. D. Hahn will randomly select audience members from those who show interest in attending.
4. 5 Minute Theatre
H. Allan cannot continue as board rep; C. Felstead will take over the position.
5. Stripmine Ocean
The Bedlam has agreed to give us a slot but S. MacDonald would prefer a thrust stage. A decision will be made on Wednesday whether to accept the Bedlam or hold out for another offer. Zoo venues is the directors’ preferred choice. C. Felstead and E. Burckhardt emphasised importance of keeping a good relationship with the Bedlam. S. MacDonald will advertise committee positions in this week’s newsletter.
6. Gary Gilchrist Memorial
E. Burckhardt suggested renaming a festival. J. May suggested renaming the STaG room, having an award in his memory or a fund in his name. S. Gregson thought renaming wasn’t enough - the memorial should be something new and lasting. S. Gregson and S. MacDonald will email G. Gilchrist’s friends with suggestions.
7. GUU
S. Gregson received an email from the GUU board to ask for feedback on the STaG’s experiences with the GUU. S. Gregson, C. Felstead, T. Pennock and L. Monkman will attend a meeting on the 18th April and eat the nibbles.
8. Play Reading Club
A collection of plays will be purchased and stored in the STaG room. The collection will be built upon regularly and provide the membership with access to lots of scripts. The club will meet regularly and a committee will be formed to organise it.
9. MSA relations
S. Gregson proposes buying a bell for STaG to reduce problems with MSA during socials.
10. Board Positions
Following on from the AGM, all board positions were discussed and amended. The list will become part of the constitution.

1. One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest
The post mortem will take place next week. S. Gregson thought it went well and he had fun. It was sold out every night and it looks as though only a tiny loss was made. L. Taylor will email the cast and crew for their thoughts on how it went. The board wondered whether to keep the wood from the set and we decided if we can get a van then we can get it and keep it, otherwise L. Monkman will see if Will is still planning on selling it. L. Monkman collected £35 membership money from new people in the cast.
2. No Way Out
Rehearsals are going well and are everyday this week. Publicity plans are being finalised and posters should be produced soon. We can get another mention on Laura Stockwell’s Subcity show but the board felt they should ask her if she really doesn’t mind us always asking her. The show will be advertised in the newsletter and will be promoted at the social. The cast will collect donations at the end of the show. The board discussed using ushers so that the audience know where they should be during the show. T. Eaton will speak to Antoine about this.
3. Stripmine Ocean
More venues have been applied for and a venue needs to have been chosen by April in order to get into the fringe guide. S. MacDonald doesn’t have the fringe pack yet and it is being looked for. A committee will be formed and an email will be sent out to ask for feedback on the show as well as whether there is anyone interested in being in the committee. Fundraising needs to start as soon as possible, this can be in the form of bake sales etc. There will be a meeting with the cast on Wednesday to sort out who can and can’t do the Fringe show.
4. Miss Julie
The cast are learning lines and D. Hahn will email assistant directors next week to let them know the basic structure of the day. She will also ask them to think of warm ups and what they want to focus on in their session. At the moment the location is still unconfirmed. GUST may be interested in helping film it but this is yet to be confirmed. Once it is confirmed then we can see how many tickets we will release and how people can get them (auction, raffle etc). Publicity has not yet started.
5. 5 Minute Theatre
There have been 2 proposals from Antoine who came to discuss them with the board. The first proposal was involving a poem and a few people in a shoe shop. This may only be about one minute long however with choreography it can be extended. The other was a silent protest with blank placards and flyers. However the board was concerned this may be a little insensitive in the current climate. After a vote the shoe shop proposal was chosen and H. Allan will act as board rep. Copyright needs to be proven for the application and the deadline for this is next Friday (25th March).
6. AIDS Fundraiser
A 15-20 minute piece will be prepared for 22nd March at the GUU. Antoine and his cast may be interested in performing a preview of No Way Out.
7. Social
The STaG room has been booked and people on the board will be making pancakes. The bar needs stocked but this will be done by T. Pennock and D. Hahn. There will be a clean up in the STaG room on Saturday between 2-3pm.

S. Gregson welcomed the new recycling bin to the STaG room (this week’s comedy)
1. One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
Rigging will be done tomorrow evening rather than during the day as the venue has now said we are unable to get in until the evening. L. Taylor feels Will may not be telling her everything that is or isn’t done. He has asked for another financial meeting as there is some confusion regarding the budget and the money raised at the fundraiser. T. Pennock will meet with him to discuss the budget and what he may want to buy that the budget does not allow for. Friday and Saturday performances have both sold out. It will be put in the newsletter that there are still tickets available for Thursday. Publicity is going well and Will has said he will organize making a programme. This will also contain an advert for the social as well as the found spaces performance.
2. Lord of the Flies
Antoine is having meetings with the cast discussing what the plans for the play are. There will be rehearsals on Wednesday and Friday this week, T. Eaton will attend to see how it is getting on. They have already had a read-through of the script. Poster plans are in progress and a financial meeting is yet to be held. After a long debate the board decided a fundraiser should be held to raise awareness for the show as well as some funds for STaG’s future shows.
3. Stripmine Ocean
Venues have been applied for and C. Felstead is looking for the fringe pack to pass onto S. MacDonald. The same cast should be kept for the Fringe as they are all available. S. Macdonald will ask for feedback from anyone that saw the show in order to improve on it, this will be put in the newsletter. Fundraising needs to start as soon as possible. Siobhan has told T. Pennock she will give him the money she has from last year.
4. Play in a Day
The QMU has been booked on the 15th May. A committee will be formed within the board as well as out with it to get some ideas. The board will begin by discussing plans via email.
5. STaG Ball/ Elections/ Social
F. Bird asked if someone could stock the bar ahead of the next social. D. Hahn and T. Pennock will do this next week after the meeting. C. Felstead, A. McKay, T. Pennock and A. Rutherford will be making pancakes. It will be readvertised in the email this week.
The plans for the ball are going well so far and a date for the meeting will be sent out. The budget is on target so far. We have to pay £50 for the bar at the GUU but if we make £250 then we get this back. We are allowed nibbles and can get in from 2pm. We have to clear up by 12pm the next day. Ticket prices will be £15 and plans for publicity will be made this week.
There has been high interest in the elections so far. They will be advertised in the newsletter after the AGM.
6. G12
The cost for 2 janitors is £36 an hour Monday-Saturday and £46 per hour on a Sunday. Tech support is £16 an hour. The studio will cost approx. £540 for 3 days and the G12 will cost approx. £1040 for the same time. The board thought they would probably be able to get the production fund again which means it would be good to do a performance in there again. We will ask the theatre department when would be best to do this around late November/early December.
S. Gregson will email The Arches to ask about using there as a potential space in future.
7. Miss Julie
The play has been cast and scripts are being sorted out for it. D. Hahn is looking for a space and limited capacity is being taken into account. It was discussed whether the play could be screened via a live link up to increase audience numbers. This could involve GUST in the performance.
8. Other Business
S. MacDonald is going to email the Guardian and Qmunicate about them turning up to watch shows for free but not reviewing them to express our disappointment.
A radioplay was discussed and could be a future opportunity for STaG.

7. Other Business
1. New Works Post Mortem
The board congratulated D. Hahn for her work on the festival and it was agreed that it went well – the venue was good and there weren’t really any issues. The judges were impressed by Buff as a space and liked how the plays used the space differently, they were happy with their experience and said it was a good mix of people. It was suggested that in future more time for setting up and days rehearsing in the space would be beneficial. This is important to put in the pack for the festival manager next year. A longer rehearsal period – perhaps an extra week – would be helpful for devised pieces especially. L. Taylor suggested the deadline for proposals should be before Christmas and pieces can be chosen over the holidays.
Because the plays were in reading week it meant more people were available. Having the plays 4 days in a row was good but it can be difficult to find judges who are available for all 4 days. Approximately £500 profit was made and £43 was made on the announcement day.
It was suggested that the next judges should follow the same format as this time where each marked the plays individually before discussing them in a group as it allowed for objectivity.
2. One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
Blocking will be finished tonight and Will will start doing runs from tomorrow. Accents are going well and those with difficulties are those who do not come to all rehearsals. Set materials have been ordered but not built yet and props and costume have mostly been sorted. So far only £5 of the budget has been spent. It is important to keep anything borrowed safe. Posters will be collected this week. Publicity is going well, a mention on Subcity and in the West End Express means people will hear about it. The fundraiser made £212.88 profit.
3. Lord of the Flies
There isn’t much to report at the moment. The play has been cast and rehearsals should be starting soon. T. Eaton will speak to him about this. Publicity and financial meetings need to be held soon, A fundraiser will be held and poster/publicity plans will start to be made. Umbrellas will be suggested in case of rain.
4. Social
There was an issue with booking the STaG room so the social is going to be held in Coopers instead. Next month’s social will be on the 20th March and will involve pancakes. It was stated that it is important as a society to have a regular social.
5. STaG Ball/ Elections/ AGM
The celidih band has been booked for 8.30-10pm. A. Rutherford will check to see if the GUU can give us the bar in the reading room for the night too. Similarly we will ask the GUU if they have speakers we can use for the DJ. L. Monkman asked the board if they can think of any silly awards to present to people. Decorations and posters need to have work done on them soon.
The elections will be held on the 1st May.
The AGM will be held before the social on the 20th March.
There will be a meeting about the ball on Wednesday between 4 and 5pm.
6. Miss Julie
The audition turn-out was good and call backs are being held on Wednesday. 7 people expressed interest in co-directing. The call-backs will emphasise how much effort there will be involved in a 24hour play rehearsal.
7. Other Business
Play in a day at the QMU will be provisionally booked for the 15th May.
A strip light is needed for OFOTCN, L. Taylor asked the board if they thought it would be worth buying one as it will be about the same price as renting one.

1. New Works
D. Hahn was congratulated by the board and said she thought it went well. The Butterfly and the Pig have not asked for any money for the venue so we are going to assume it means the hire was free. £520 was made in ticket sales which gives an approximate profit of £400. The winner will be announced on Wednesday.
2. Cuckoo’s Nest
L. Taylor is concerned that Will may be falling behind schedule, set and costume have not yet been sorted however some props have been sourced from the Tron and the Citizen’s theatre. The fundraiser will be on Friday and the bar will be stocked prior to this.
3. Lord of the Flies
Audition turn out was not the best it could have been so more will be held next week. They will be better publicised.
4. Marat
S. Gregson emailed Libby to tell her we were unable to find a director and encouraged her to re-propose it next year.
5. Community Theatre
J. May will email the St. Enoch centre regarding the plans outlined in the email. He is also intending to make a pack for next year’s community theatre officer with some help tips in it.
6. Miss Julie
There has been lots of interest regarding co-directing however D. Hahn is unsure of how many people will audition.
7. Other Business
There will be a meeting tomorrow at 5pm in the STaG room to organise the ball. L. Monkman is excited. Poster plans will be decided on soon.
D. Hahn will book a fringe slot for the NWF winner over the weekend.
