It's that time of year again when team Scran cannot resist the temptation of the world's biggest arts festival. Rosalind went along earlier this week to enjoy a foodie's day out at the festival and bring you some top shows to consider if you're heading to Edinburgh this August. First up she hit C Venue for coffee, a croissant and Shakespeare for Breakfast. This show has been performed at the Edinburgh Fringe festival for 33 years. Rosalind chats to Mary Gensich, Company Manager for C Theatre and Clare Louise Roberts, one of the performers, to hear about this year's show. Then for something completely different Rosalind went to A History of Fortune Cookies performed by Sean Wai Keung. With an audience of ten this was a really intimate show where Sean shared his story about the influence of his Chinese grandparents all while baking the audience their own fortune cookies. For many the festival is all about the Fringe and the laughs, Daniel Downie definitely brought those in his whisky-soaked show Daniel Downie: Dram(a)s which was Rosalind's third show of the day.  Whilst many may start an evening at the festival with a glass of wine or 5 Rosalind chose to finish up with In Pour Taste - a wine tasting from Australian comedians Ethan Cavanagh and Sweeney Preston who have teamed up with local wine experts to produce a raucous one hour and 15 mins of entertainment (and some wine education).  Make sure to check out The Scotsman's coverage of the festivals to be right up to date with reviews and recommendations.

David Pickard discusses with Ivan six things which should be better known. David Pickard studied Music at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, before starting his career as Company Manager of the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden. Following this, David worked at the Open Air Theatre in Regent's Park and was the Assistant Director for the Japan Festival (1991) before becoming Sir John Drummond's deputy at the European Arts Festival. In 1993 he was appointed Chief Executive of the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment where he significantly increased the orchestra's artistic reputation and international profile, helping to establish the OAE as the pre-eminent period-instrument orchestra in the world. In 2001 he was made General Director of Glyndebourne Festival where during his tenure he created an extensive digital programme including online streaming, big-screen and cinema relays and broadened the company's audience base through specially priced performances for young people and a pioneering education programme. In November 2015, David took up the role of Director of the BBC Proms. Since then he has introduced a number of initiatives, all in support of the Proms' central mission: to bring ‘the best of classical music to the widest possible audience.' These have included an innovative series called ‘Proms at…' exploring music in new spaces, both in London and around the UK. He has introduced greater diversity among the composers, conductors and soloists showcased by the Proms - both in gender and ethnicity - and has also made youth music-making and youth audiences a major focus. He has expanded the range of genres explored in the festival to include gaming music, contemporary jazz, world music and, in 2018, a twenty minute animated light show projected onto the external and internal façades of the Royal Albert Hall, accompanied by a new work for orchestra and chorus by Anna Meredith.

Topic discuss: "Conflict diamonds" and "Mental Health" Presenter: Talib Man Rana Rehman Safeer Zartasht Khan Conflict diamonds It's been over 20 years since the global effort to ban conflict diamonds began, but the industry is still tainted by conflict and misery. This show will seek to highlight the illicit trade of blood diamonds that has resulted in funding wars and conflicts in affected areas. We will discuss the fundamental causes of the trade such as exploitations, greed, materialism and many more. Mental Health Recent research has shown the number of people reporting mental health issues since the pandemic has hit an all-time high. However, is it mostly due to the environmental factors or individual genetics that have a part to play in this as well or is one more influential than the other?

Guests include: Lisa Rosen, Company Manager of the International Gem Society, joining us from Boston, Massachusetts (USA) Steven Press - assistant professor of history in the School of Humanities and Sciences.

Ruth was brought up in Ireland by her dancer mother and singer and actor father, to a backdrop of golden era Hollywood musicals with some Beatles thrown in for good measure.  After watching her mother teach choreography, she went on to take ballet classes herself soon after she could walk.  Studying music at University College in Dublin, she soon discovered she didn't want to perform, and focused on the academic side of her degree.  She went for her first interview after graduating for the job of Assistant Chorus Manager at the Royal Opera House, thinking it would be good interview practice.  She not only got the job, but stayed for many years in different capacities, before taking on the Company Management role at Scottish Opera and Opera Holland Park, and working closely with Opera Rara.  As the Company Manager of the Royal Opera House, Ruth had to not only bring the artists at the house to a screeching halt in the face of the pandemic, but organise and reorganise the company in the wake of the crisis that has been devastating our industry.  Ruth chats through the highs and lows of the high-pressure environments she has worked in, and what happens when you get that emergency call from prompt corner…

A new taxi service has rolled into town and AL speaks to Lee Wilson, Company Manager of Now Cars. During the current ahem climate, it is important to know how to efficiently get from A to B. That is why we thought it was a great idea to speak to Lee and find out about this shiny new taxi company. Lee is a long serving taxi driver for Shrewsbury. He knows the town, knows the people and he knows how to offer a good, friendly, efficient and more importantly honest service. We discuss what goes into starting up a company like this, what makes Now Cars stand out from the rest and also AL gets to dive into questions that don't go like "You been working long tonight mate? You been busy?" That same old thing we all seem to get into when we're in the back of a taxi. "This show is designed to offer snippets of life in Shrewsbury. There's nothing more humbling to hear, than a story of a taxi driver who has risen through the ranks to eventually become a company manager for a brand new company. Lee is a great guy, I wish him and Adrian the best of luck with Now Cars" - AL

Known affectionately as Frosty the Showman; impresario John Frost has been at the pinnacle of Musical Theatre in Australia for several decades. The Gordon Frost Organisation contributes much of the commercial product that traverses stages around the country. His productions have garnered a swag of local awards as well as two Tony Awards for musicals on the Broadway stage.Frost grew up in Adelaide and harboured dreams of a showbiz life. He’d stage backyard entertainments with his doting Aunt Mary playing Eliza to his Henry Higgins. He's been stage-struck ever since. It was a childhood influenced by a regular diet of television and Hollywood movies. A dalliance with amateur theatre in his teens provided him with the realisation that he was suited more to backstage.He left school at 15 and began his career as a dresser on the J.C. Williamson’s production of Mame. Frost had found what he wanted to do and the young apprentice garnered enormous knowledge working his way through a succession of roles - Wardrobe Master, Office Assistant to Kenn Brodziak, Stage Manager, Company Manager and Actors Agent - each experience informing his prized accomplishment as Producer.In 1983 John Frost co-founded the Gordon Frost Organisation with Ashley Gordon. They took a lease on the University of Sydney’s Footbridge Theatre and presented a succession of shows that would demonstrate to the pair the precarious nature of ‘the business’. Shows emanating from The Footbridge included Women Behind Bars (starring June Bronhill), ‘Night Mother (starring Jill Perryman and June Salter), Agnes of God and a ‘just sensational ‘ production of Jerry’s Girls.It’s a riveting story and John speaks frankly and with great wit, about his journey and what is involved in being Frosty the Showman; producing commercial product, increasing the profile of musical theatre and delivering a magical experience to audiences.

“No matter how you understand your content, your users will tell you how well you don’t understand it” this quote is from Andy Hunt, Manager, Digital Innovation Lab at the Hershey Company - this week on the #ShinyNewObject podcast. Andy is making innovation happen at Hershey with his own hands - telling us that “I build things.” His advice to those getting into the innovation game is that we should learn to make things ourselves - “all the tools are out there.” But it’s not all nuts and bolts for Andy. He is adamant that the role of the innovation person is to make technology “relatable”. Talking about innovation is not enough. His view is that “PowerPoint decks don’t do it - we are in a show and tell environment.” Andy’s shiny new object is ‘AI for Internal Comms’ and Hershey have explored this through voice and chatbots. These projects have taught him not to assume how his audience thinks. He tells us that “you can’t schedule enough user testing periods.” Andy’s innovation mission at Hershey’s is create a “deeper connection with consumers” by looking at technology that is two to four years out.   I loved hearing that “innovation is a company wide initiative” at the Hershey Company and maybe that’s why it’s been around for one hundred and twenty years.   Andy is a dude. This interview was a treat. Enjoy.

Holli Campbell is back and this #FeministHero is once again here to remind us that "there's a place in the theatre for all of us; if you love it, pursue it.” Holli goes in on how she ended up at Hamilton's opening night (before she even worked there!), the beauty of EduHam, and the importance of following your gut. 

In an entirely unprecedented move, I had to record an Emergency Podcast System to put at the top of an already completed episode! Join me and my husband Mike as we play and discuss not only April's #Hamildrop, #FirstBurn, but Lin-Manuel Miranda's very first draft of Burn! We talked about the draft during #Lintoberfest and thanks to LMM's endless generosity and awesomeness, The Hamilcast is the only place you can hear this unreleased draft. Needless to say, we lost our minds and you will too. Enjoy!

From what a company manager does to breaking down all the types of tickets and how to get them (yes!), Holli proves that you don't have to be on stage to be heavily involved in theatre.  HAMILTON Ham4Ham 9/11/15 “Love for the Techies Day” with the entire company On “Love for the Techies Day," production stage manager Jason Bassett calls the cues while Lin-Manuel and the company perform “Ten Duel Commandments” (without the dual turntables): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqE-mGI5OaM

In this episode of STAGES, we speak with Michael Norman – upon meeting Michael, you can be nothing but engaged. His exuberant personality leaps at you large, and his passion for showbiz is palpable. The son of performers, he entered the business working in television props and along the way served a stint as a model in the UK, ultimately returning to Australia to assume a career as a Company Manager - on the big commercial shows that tour the country and abroad. He’s been called ‘old school’ and ‘adored by all who have worked with him’. Company Management is a job for a people person. Someone who can represent the Producer’s interest while attending to the day to day personnel matters of all on board a big show … Michael does both with ease – ensuring that if you know Michael’s managing the show – you’re in good hands!

Clearly, mounting a Broadway show is a herculean task that requires the talents and expertise of a whole cast of characters, far beyond the actors you see on stage. One of those players is the Company Manager. Who? In case you didn't know, the job of a Company Manager is one of the toughest in the theater. You're about to find out why. Tracy Geltman began her career at Maine State Music Theater as an apprentice before coming to New York, where she worked on "Hairspray," "War Paint," "Fun Home" and "The Band's Visit," to name just a few Broadway hits. Listen in as she talks about her love of theater and what it's like to be the Company Manager.

This week we welcome back the very first guest to ever sit down for an interview, it's the return of Sound Designer Lindsay Jones! But this is no ordinary episode. Lindsay is the undisputed king of travel tips, tricks, hacks, secrets, and every other solution to making life on the road as stress free as possible and he joins us today to share with us his wealth of knowledge and experience. Cory and Lindsay chat about airline preferences, loyalty miles, perks and upgrades, best and worst airports, booking websites, what to do if your flight gets canceled, car rental insurance and a whole host of other related topics. They talk about the thankless job of Company Manager and the role they play in making travel arrangements for designers. And as an added bonus, Lindsay shares with us a fascinating tale from his current show 'Privacy' at the Public Theatre, which may or may not involve a certain US Citizen living in an undisclosed location in Russia. If you're a designer who travels a lot, this episode is required listening and will hopefully be the first in a series with Lindsay as he helps everyone learn how to save the tears for opening night, not the Delta terminal.
