A bit of a random plea - HELP THE SHELSLEYS VILLAGE HALL WORCESTER!
Hi all,
I'm Sharon, administrator for The Shelsleys Village Hall Charity, and I'm hoping you might be able to help us with a slightly random request!
I'm not even sure if what we're looking for is actually a "thing" - but we thought it was worth asking!
We're a small rural village hall in Shelsley Beauchamp, just outside Worcester, and, like many village halls, we're struggling to raise enough funds to keep our doors open.
So, we're thinking outside the box and we would LOVE to put on an interactive Murder Mystery Night!
We're looking for a local Amateur Dramatics group, actors or anyone experienced in Murder Mystery events who might fancy helping us create an evening of murder, mystery, clues, suspects, dressing up, lots of laughs - and where our guests actually become part of the investigation!
WHODUNNIT?
We'd be incredibly grateful for any help, ideas, contacts or offers to get this off the ground, looking to put on at the end of Feb 2026. And yes, the Management Committee will happily dress up and join in too
We're simply trying to raise funds, bring our community together and keep our village hall alive.?
And if you're able to help us, we promise a warm Shelsleys welcome, plenty of laughs, good company and maybe even a couple of FOC cheeky drinks from the bar!
Please feel free to share this too. You never know who might be able to help!
Murder, mystery, mayhem, shenanigans in the Shelsleys whats not to love. loads of laughs, a couple of cheeky drinks and hopefully raising some much-needed money for our village hall!
Many thanks in advance and we look forward to hearing from you
Sharon
Administrator, Shelsleys Village Hall Charity
On behalf of the SVH Management Committee

I am the creative director of the Curious Opera Company and we have an upcoming opportunity which might be of interest to your members.
We are seeking two male identifying/presenting actors to portray the Angel Clare and Alec d'Urbeville in our staged production of Thomas Hardy's Tess of the d'Urbervilles.
This role involves delivering dialogue in the dramatic scenes which appear amidst the song cycle, Schubert's Winterreise.
We will be fundraising to offer a base rate of pay, but this is not yet guaranteed. We are also offering a profit share following the settlement of the box office.
If you are interested, please email your CV and a pre-existing showreel to Emily at thecuriousoperacompany@gmail.com by 27 September 2026.

Hi,
I'm organising a fantasy book release event in Ware on Monday 26 October 2026 and wondered whether you might be willing to share a small paid acting opportunity with your adult members.
The event is called Vaults of Velaris and is an unofficial fan celebration and midnight book release event inspired by Sarah J. Maas's A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR) series. We're expecting up to approximately 100 guests and are transforming an atmospheric cellar-style venue into an immersive fantasy setting for the evening.
We're currently looking for someone to take on a very fun character role as The Suriel, a mysterious, slightly creepy but much-loved character from the books.
Violinist also required!!!
The role
We're creating a "Suriel Tea Table" within the event.
The actor would be in full costume and seated at an atmospheric table with a teapot, vintage cups, candles and props. Guests would visit individually or in small groups to "seek answers from the Suriel".
Rather than genuine fortune telling, the idea is for the Suriel to give guests cryptic, theatrical and often funny fantasy-themed predictions and answers, particularly referencing characters, relationships and running jokes from the ACOTAR books.
We're looking for someone who is:
. An adult (18+)
. Confident interacting directly with guests
. Comfortable with improvisation and staying in character
. Quick-witted and able to deliver both mysterious and humorous responses
. Happy wearing a fairly dramatic fantasy costume/makeup
. Ideally familiar with ACOTAR, although this isn't essential if they're willing to learn some key characters and references beforehand
The performance would only be for approximately 1-2 hours during the evening, rather than the full duration of the event.
We would provide the costume, character brief and plenty of pre-written prompts, predictions and ACOTAR references for the actor to use, so they wouldn't be expected to create everything themselves. There would still be lots of opportunity for improvisation for someone who enjoys that style of performance.
Event details
Event: Vaults of Velaris
Date: Monday 26 October 2026
Location: Ware, Hertfordshire
Role: The Suriel
Performance duration: Approximately 1-2 hours
Type: Interactive/improvised character performance
Fee: Paid role - approximately £75 for the performance, plus complimentary access to the event and refreshments
Costume: Provided
We're particularly interested in finding someone who would have fun with the role. The Suriel is meant to be mysterious and slightly unsettling, but also one of the funniest encounters of the evening, so personality and improvisation are more important to us than extensive professional experience.
If this sounds like something one of your adult members might enjoy, I would be incredibly grateful if you would consider circulating the opportunity amongst your performers, or putting me in touch with anyone you think may be particularly suitable.
I'm very happy to provide further details about the event, character, costume or performance if helpful.
Thank you so much for your time and for considering sharing this with your members.
Best wishes,
Kristina
Vaults of Velaris

Great Central Railway Halloween - The Ghost Train
I hope you're well. I'm getting in touch on behalf of Great Central Railway as their new Head of Commercial as we prepare for our new Halloween event, taking place on 24, 30 and 31 October. We're inviting local amateur dramatic, theatre, dance, performance and community groups to be part of the event by helping us create a fun, atmospheric and spooky experience for visitors. We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers who would be happy to perform as scare actors, interact with guests in character and help bring the Halloween setting to life.
The activity will be fully briefed, with safety guidance provided in advance and on the night. Groups do not need previous scare-acting experience - just confidence, imagination and a willingness to get involved. Costumes, characters and performance ideas can be discussed with us, and we would be happy to work with your group to find the best fit for the event.
The concept is that passengers will join the train at Loughborough Station before the Ghost Train appears to "break-down" at Quorn. At this point, scare actors will create an initial surprise by appearing at the carriage windows before joining passengers on board. The train will then continue to Rothley and back; actors will leave the train at Quorn, and the service will return passengers to Loughborough. Actors then join the next train and the experience is repeated. The event will take place in the evening, likely between approximately 5.00pm and 8.00pm.
If this is something your group may be interested in, please let us know which of the dates - 24, 30 and/or 31 October - you may be available for, roughly how many people might like to take part, and who would be the best contact for further details.
We'd be delighted to hear from you and would welcome the opportunity to involve local groups in making this new event a memorable success.

Just a little note to say we've extended the deadline for people wishing to apply for the poem. We're also looking for community groups to be involved so please do call me if you want to chat through, my number is 07500047280!
We're working on a campaign with the Cabinet Office about government investment in communities like Carmarthenshire. The campaign is centred on how government funding empowers communities across the UK directly and indirectly - and we're looking to include people who have been directly or indirectly, impacted by this fund. For example, local residents, community organisations, small businesses, or frontline workers.
Filming will be in Carmarthenshire on Tuesday 16th June (potentially the day before too tbc).
We hope to spend 1-2 hours filming with about six local individuals or groups per day. Filming will be straightforward: either a few hours with our small, friendly crew at your location, or a producer guiding you to film moments yourself on a phone. We want to see real moments in people's day-to-day environments (at work, in their community, or during regular activities) filmed in a documentary style. We'll also film some iconic spaces and buildings. We'll also be taking a series of photographs alongside filming, which we'd of course be very happy to share with you afterwards. The film will be 30 seconds long, like a montage showing real residents of Carmarthenshire living day-to-day. The final video will be shared online and across social media channels; the campaign is expected to launch in July.
We're also looking for individuals to apply to recite a poem that ties the film visuals together. It will be a 30-second short film, a celebration of a day in the life of community spirit in Carmarthenshire. The director, Jacob, is lovely, and will ensure a nice experience for people. If you or your network wish to apply please share the following information:
Carmarthenshire Community Filming Casting:
Thank you so much for your interest in this project. We will be filming on Tuesday 16th June (or another day that week - that will be confirmed soon). People will be needed for a few hours on that day.
The film will be 30 seconds long, and show lots of different communities and community spaces in Carmarthenshire - from sports spaces, cultural spaces and public spaces. One local resident will be asked to narrate the film - a few lines about Carmarthenshire, and being part of a community. No previous experience needed!
Anyone who would like to be considered for the speaking role, we'd like to invite them make a quick video so we can show them off to the director Jacob Proud at Curate Films. It doesn't need to be anything fancy, just something filmed on your phone would be perfect. The video will only be used for casting purposes and will be deleted when we cast the project.
We've popped the self-tape instructions below.
Important - please fill out this quick form when submitting your video so we can update you with the outcome of the casting: here You can also find a description of the project on that link too.
SELF-TAPE QUESTIONS:
1. Please introduce yourself - your name, what you do for a living / in your spare time. (Please mention what community group you're associated with).
2. Briefly tell us about something you've done that you're proud of!
3. How long have you lived in Carmarthenshire, and what's your favourite thing about being a Carmarthenshire resident?
As it is a government campaign, we can't pay people for taking part but as the person reading the poem will be needed for a bit more of the day, we will be able to cover their expenses (including any loss of earnings if they have to take time off work, so they're not out of pocket). This can be paid as a voucher or via bank transfer.
Centre Stage London are seeking a Black male-presenting performer to audition for the role of Bob in their upcoming production of Come From Away.
About the role:
Bob is a New Yorker whose journey becomes one of the most moving in the show. Stranded in Gander after 9/11, he arrives guarded, sceptical, and deeply unsettled - but gradually discovers warmth, trust, and belonging in an unfamiliar place. It's a role with real emotional depth, humanity, and heart.
The track also covers additional featured roles within the ensemble, requiring versatility, strong storytelling instincts, and confident character switches.
The team is looking for a generous, collaborative performer with strong acting ability. Singing and movement confidence are helpful, but truthful storytelling is at the heart of this piece.
Rehearsals will be in Finsbury Park from early May to late July, with performances taking place from the 21st - 25th of July in Blackfriars.You can find more information about the show in the audition notice at www.centrestage.london/come-from-away.

Hello,
I'm reaching out on behalf of Veezu - we're currently working on an exciting collaboration with the Grand Theatre, and would love to know if yourself or any of your groups/students (18+) would be interested.
We're creating a fun, social-first piece of content inspired by The Rocky Horror Show. The idea is to capture a playful, high-energy journey: you'll be dressed up in character, hopping into the back of a Veezu cab and saying "take me to the Grand Theatre"...
Think singing, chatting, and fully embracing the Rocky Horror vibe during the ride - building anticipation and excitement before arriving at the Grand Theatre for the big finale.
Filming is planned for Friday 27th March, and it should be a really enjoyable, standout piece.
Location would be Wolverhampton Central around 11am on Friday (can be flexible)
This will be an hours work.
Let me know if this sounds like something you'd be up for - I'd love to share more details!

Fabulous role up for grabs! We are looking for an actor to play the role of young Salieri.
Acting age can be between 30 and 60 though there is flexibility with this. This is a large and extremely rewarding role. As the play progresses it explores the characteristics that can drive a man to ultimately consider murder. Jealousy, lust and envy are all interwoven within the confines of the 18th century Austrian Imperial Court. Salieri is driven by obsession and resentment. He actively sabotages Mozart's career whilst battling with God for giving such divine talent to a man he considers a vulgar, infantile upstart instead of himself.
Performance dates : 28th April - 2nd May 2026 at Woodford Centre SK7 1PS
Usual Rehearsal Days are Sun Daytime when required
Mon, Weds, Thurs Evenings
Rehearsals Commence 16th February 2026
