Still Wondering What's In Store For 2011?
Following on from the meet and greet session we are now welcoming pitches for the Sedos 2011 season.
As discussed with those who came along to the Albion we are interested in hearing all ideas, big and small, straight plays, musicals, cabarets, new writing, short shows, long shows. We want you to be as creative as possible so we can come up with a really exciting season.
We welcome those who wish to direct or be part of a production team, but this is not essential. If there is simply a show you think would be great to put on please also send us those ideas too.
We are here to support your ideas with production, technical and marketing teams so please do not hold back if you are nervous about those aspects, the committee are here to support you throughout the process. At this stage we simply want to hear all the exciting ideas you have.
Please send pitches to sedospitch@gmail.com by 10 September 2010.

Hair - Past And Present
Three generations of Hair met last at the opening night of Sedos’ production of the tribal love rock musical on Wednesday 16 June. Amongst those who watched as the latest generation rocked the Bridewell Theatre were Sonja Kristina and Liz White, who both played Chrissy in the original 1968 London cast, Andy Forray, who played Margaret Mead in the original 1968 London cast, and Andree Bernard, who played Sheila in the 1993 London cast. And, as is traditional, they joined the Drop City Tribe onstage for the encore ‘Let the Sunshine in’!
Thanks to Michael Smith for the photo.

Hair Hits The Headlines
Our next production – the tribal love-rock musical Hair – has been featured in The Times. So what did City Diarist Martin Waller want to know? Whether the cast were getting naked! You can see all for yourself when the show opens next month, 16-26 June. Book your tickets now - some of the sofa seats have already sold out!
