Remember December – Tron Participation Show for Nursery and Lower Primary pupils

Flora is very, very forgetful. But it doesn’t
bother her or make her fretful. She forgets
to brush her teeth just before bed, to tidy
her toys or to remember anything her mum
and dad said!

She ties knots in her ribbons and in pieces of
string, but it doesn’t really help her
remember a thing. Flora looks in her pocket
and what does she find? Her letter to Santa
all sealed and signed. She’s forgotten to post
it. She didn’t remember! What will happen
on the 25th of December?

Join Flora on a snowy night and help her try
to put things right. To deliver her letter, so
her name’s not missed, from Santa’s Claus’s
Christmas present list?

Autumn at the Tron Theatre

We have been busy bees putting our Autumn programme in place and we are happy to share with you some of the opportunities that will be coming up over the coming months.

Macbeth
The Tron theatre in co porduction with Horsecross Arts will present Macbeth Tuesday 8th – Saturday 19th October 7.45pm. Check out the Tron website www.tron.co.uk for further information on tickets. Don’t forget we have a schools discount for this production. Tron Participation has an outreach programme of work to coincide with this show. Be sure to check out our ‘Productions’ page on our Glow area for details of what we have on offer.

Partner Schools
After the success of our partnership with Mearns Castle and Greenfaulds High Schools we are happy to announce we will be partnering with three new secondary schools for the 2013-14 academic year. These schools are Eastbank Academy, Caldervale High and St Andrews RC Secondary School. We look forward to working with them and will keep you updated on our progress.

Tron Ambassadors
We will be recruiting new members to join our Tron Ambassadors scheme for the 2013-14 season. Last years Ambassadors were a real asset to the Tron, hosting social media calls, reviewing our shows and creating a front of house event to coincide with our S1-S2 Skillshops performance in April this year. We have put together an exciting programme of activities for the new recruits to get their teeth into. Deadline for applications is Friday 6th September at 3pm. For further details or an application pack please contact Deborah McArthur.

Classes
We have a whole host of classes from Drama, Set and Costume Design to Script Writing. These classes are for participants 6months upwards. Check out our website www.tron.co.uk for further details. Classes start back 31st August onwards.

We have updated our Glow area and added some new resources so please make sure you check it out. We will be adding to the site, as always, throughout the Autumn season so make sure to check back regularly and keep in touch with us. We have a live noticeboard on our Glow area and we want to keep a dialogue going with schools.

If you wish to find out further information about our Macbeth outreach work or our Partner Schools programme or would like an application pack for our Ambassadors Scheme please contact Deborah McArthur, Drama Officer on deborah.mcarthur@tron.co.uk

We look forward to hearing from you!!
Best Wishes
