Hello from the comfort of our living room! We are South By SouthWest Theatre Company and at the start of 2020, we all decided that we would love to bring you a blog, to be a little more interactive and to share all the fun (and stress) that comes with starting your own theatre company. A year later - here we are!
The coronavirus really put the brakes on everybody's lives, and our scheduled dates to tour our first main show were cancelled. Now, with restrictions ending, and more hope than we have had before on having control over the virus, we are able to talk more, get together and, we cannot believe we are finally saying this, but rehearse for our upcoming show. - Exciting!
As most of you know, the four of us met in 2017 in Cardiff, on the MA Drama course at the University of South Wales. We worked collaboratively on all our projects throughout the year. Soon we realised that not only did we enjoy working together, but that creativity flourished when we were discussing ideas together and supporting each other. This is when we realised, South By SouthWest Theatre Company was to be formed.
Over the past few months, we have been working hard on bouncing back, posting more on social media, showing you guys what we are doing and how you can be involved. There have been a lot of zoom calls, voice notes and messages; and although, as creatives we do tend to go off topic, we have got the theatre company back to a place that we are delighted with - our three-year plan, quickly became an 18-month plan!
Every Sunday evening, we will be bringing you something on our blog, whether it be something we are working on, a review, a theatrical discussion or recommendations. We hope that you can be part of the discussion too!
