Hi There I was wondering if you could help. I am interested in hiring Lenny for a theatre show next year.
We are a non-profit youth theatre company, so require a celebrity who is
comfortable working with our talented group of students aged from
10-16. We are taking our shows to the next level to give the students from the local community a great performing arts platform and experience working with professionals, we really want to hire someone to work with to help us promote youth theatre in our local area.
Any information you could provide in relation to the details below would be
appreciated, in addition to costing and terms if possible.
The exact requirements of our show and other information you may deem
pertinent are as follows:
Show date: 29th May 2021 (Both 1pm Matinee and 6pm Evening shows)
Show title and Running time: Happily Ever After (90 mins)
Cast size: 16 children, 1 adult (to be hired). Professional dance school
performing additional background dances.
Venue: Princes Theatre, Clacton on Sea, Essex (800 seat capacity)
Previous show performance: Alice in Wonderland 517 seats sold. (no celebrity appearance)
Show synopsis: A mix and match of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales, featuring King William,
Cinderella, Rumplestiltskin, The Pied Piper, Rapunzel, Evil Princess Prescilla and
others. Clean and fun family entertainment.
Character: King, Ruler of fairy tale land and the father to Evil Princess Prescilla and Cinderella. He will be stepping down as king and is looking for a new replacement. His evil daughter thinks this should be her! He is a very fun, excitable and lovable character that is easily fooled by his evil daughter. A great leading funny role with of course a happily ever after.
Participation requirement: 80-120 lines maximum, 5- 7 scenes appeared. Small participation in the finale dance and a small amount of singing as a group in the finale.
Rehearsals: Minimum of two rehearsals, tech and dress rehearsals the
Wednesday and Thursday before the show.* At the theatre plus an Additional minimum of 4
rehearsals at our Frinton on Sea rehearsal venue (where possible)
Script availability: Script to be available 2-3 months after contract signing as the lines for
this particular character will be written specifically to fit the celebrity
by a professional script writer with TV and theatre credits.
Flexibility: If hired we are happy to work with you to incorporate your own ideas into the script, maximising the effectiveness of the talent on offer.
Budget: we have a budget of £3500 including VAT. (Negotiable) this is the first time hiring but we are open to negotiate.
Contract: A written contract protecting both yourself and our company will be drawn up and signed by both parties. Included in the contract will be all necessary payment details once we have reached an agreement.
*A month or so prior to the show date, depending on rehearsal involvement, we will also provide a video of the necessary scenes with a stand-in actor, in order for you to get
up to speed with the performance and gauge timing.
Thank you in anticipation for any information you can provide. We’re
looking to really promote the importance of youth theatre in the community and really hope that you will be able to join us on stage to help do so.
Kindest Regards
Clare Chandler
Spotlight Youth Theatre Company
Director
Hi Clare,
Thank you for getting in touch and registering your interest in Lenny.
Unfortunately he will be unavailable and on another project at this time so will be unable to attach himself to this I’m afraid. Sorry to disappoint but thank you for thinking of him.
Best wishes,
Millie
