Details

by Tim Johanson

Found yourself organising a show that you didn't mean to? Or frustrated that no one else is producing your show and just want to do it yourself? You're not alone.
The Accidental Producer is the first-timer's guide to getting a play, musical or anything else on stage. This step by step handbook explains every stage of the production process, from funding your project to selling the show and everything in between.
Written by an experienced theatre producer this book additionally shares the perspectives of eleven industry specialists you might encounter on your journey.

· Park Theatre Artistic Director, Jez Bond on how to connect to a venue decision maker
· Fleabag producer, Francesca Moody on the secrets to success at the Edinburgh Fringe
· Arts Council England Relationship Manager, Paula Varjack on how securing their funding actually works
· Press representative, Chloe Nelkin on how to maximise a show's press coverage
· Agent, Alex Segal on approaching star actors

This much-needed book's liberating message is that anyone can produce a successful show, especially if they have in their armoury the advice of those that have come before.
