1) Much Ado
Poster design has been passed back and forth a few times and looks as though it is nearly finished. The set building is going well and Josh is pleased with it. Ideas for a fundraiser are being talked about and the board will be updated. STaG will handle the bookings and box office rather than the venue doing it.

2) Closer
Posters have been finished and printed. Actors are nearly off script, C. Felstead expressed the need for this to happen asap! L. Taylor and H. Allan will be on the door on Wednesday and T. Pennock and C. Goldstone will do it on Thursday. Tech and dress will be Wednesday during the day. So far £40 of the budget has been spent

3) STaG Nights
The launch party went well and raised £171.99. T. Pennock and L. Monkman are still chasing up the SRC grant and will speak to them on Tuesday. Postering should be done asap - a rota is being emailed out and posters are available for collection from the STaG room. A flyering doodle will be sent out and the board should fill it in. Night reps are going to rehearsals to time the shows. L. Monkman will book a van to move props etc. Music is going well even though a singer has dropped out.

4) Other Uni posters
Not printed but will be probably by Tuesday.

5) Social
The stand costs £2 and it is possible to reserve tickets online or get them on the door. The board discussed a pantomime as a christmas-style theatre trip.

6) New Works
L. Taylor has a few ideas for judges in mind. She is emailing people asking if they would be interested. The proposal form is a work in progress.

7) Board Trip
Ice skating on the 26th and then dinner at Stereo. G. Bennett-Lurie will book a table.

8) STaG Studio
L. Taylor looked into scaffolding but was a bit overwhelmed at all the types on offer. A. Rutherford will have a look. I. McArthur will send information on grants to the board who should look through them. C. Felstead suggested that this year's board gets the ball rolling for next year's.

9) AOB
S. Gregson spoke to the gate about the keys and was told to speak to estates and buildings - he will do this and find out how much another key will cost.
The archive committee should be formed (as it is in the constitution). D. Di Rollo will head it and look for interest in joining.
C. Felstead will send out a doodle for an exec meeting.
