Autumn 2025 musical

CALL FOR DIRECTORS AND CREATIVE TEAMS

Lead a future Phoenix show

Are you interested in directing or being part of a creative team? We’re on the lookout for passionate individuals or teams to help bring our spring 2026 family show to life!

The show will take place in April/May 2026.. We have shortlisted four of our previously submitted scripts, and we’re open to new scripts as long as they are submitted with enough time to be reviewed by the committee.  You’re welcome to apply as an individual or as a small group - and if you’re selected, we can help you to build a creative team.

The committee has shortlisted four scripts which have previously been submitted :

  • Cinderella - written by Nicci English-Wright

  • Villainous - written by Nicci English-Wright

  • Who’s Afraid of BB Wolf - written by Shaun Smith

  • Pintamome - written by Simon Kerry

If any of these speak to you — or if you have a script to submit— we’d love to hear from you!

📅 Deadline to express interest: Sunday 7 September 2025

📧 Email us at: phoenixplayersamdram@gmail.com

Questions? Don’t hesitate to reach out to the committee or chat with past production team members—we’re happy to help!
