Job Application

I think I am a very skilled and talented employee and think I would fit in well with your theatre company. I have lots of experience of working with other directors or companies and lots of experience of working within different roles of a theatre team. I can act, dance, direction work, sing, playwright, make costume, build set, be a member of the crew and I reckon I will be the perfect person for you.
Elaborating on the skills I have just said, I have played in several melodrama performances, extra improvisation workshops, played the White queen in Alice in wonderland, Played Mary Warren in the crucible and other self written work. I can dance and started dance when I was 6. I danced for 7 years and really enjoyed it but stopped because I was far too busy. I have taken on the directors role in my drama group (Masquerade Theatre) several times and really found it productive and enjoyable. I have sung in the Roman Amphitheatre In Italy as part of a choir I have been with for 2 years who I went on tour to Italy with. I had a solo in my school show in primary and high school.
My playwright skills are not as strong as my others but when I sit down and think about it, ideas flow into my head and I can create a amateur piece of work. I have had some experience playwright at the West Yorkshire Playhouse on a school trip for an Offstage choices workshop.
During my acting with the The Masquerade theatre I did have some experiences making costume and building set but not a lot. We had to make our costumes for a tribal performance we did and had to create the set and props ourselves. We then had to perform it at a carnival which was weird performing in your own made costumes.
Sadly I was ill and missed an audition for the school show 2011 of Cloud Busting. Although I couldn't be part of the cast I got involved in the crew and became a member of the crew, helped front of house and helped create some set. Even though I wasn't really doing what I most wanted to do, I still really enjoyed what I did as it was something different and something I never knew I could do.
I really am extremely versatile and will be involved in any role within the theatre as you need me to be because at the end of the day I am involved and that's all that matters. Once I am in I can then work to get into higher positions or different roles which may suite me better.
Above all my skills I have spoken about above, I can also add my personality to your company. I have a constant bubbly personality and believe that my people skills are incredible. I can relate to several social and political issues and think I will connect with our audiences.
I know lots of drama conventions that are useful if you do not already do them and believe that my new mind can bring new, fresh ideas to this already outstanding company and add my sparkle to your other employees.
Please do not hesitate to contact me about further questions you have. I really hope I have impressed you and hope you consider me a perfect applicant for this job.
I anticipate your response.
Thank you,
Yours Sincerely,
Bethany Kaye
