Celebrating the Lloyd Webber success
Master of the Musicals is an original show being performed by Jávea Players and pays homage to the talent of composer Andrew Lloyd Webber.
Aided and abetted by Tim Rice’s lyrics, show after show has become an international hit for the man with the Midas touch.
The traditional Jávea Players’ summer show is a little later than normal but once again includes an al fresco tapas dinner before adjourning to the casa del cultura to enjoy some of the songs that have thrilled fans across the globe.
Master of the Musicals runs from Monday July 27 to Saturday August 1 and correct social distancing is planned at the meal and inside the auditorium; book early as number are limited.
And there will be fewer performers than originally planned because of the challenges of ‘distancing rehearsing’ with the technical team during the coronavirus lockdown. However, six singers will provide the entertainment; led by Roger Brown, who came up with the idea for the show.
The meal is outside Bar Imperial as usual; guests will be allocated seats upon arrival. Tickets are now on sale at €19.50. For more information visit www.javeaplayers.com.
Ticket to ride
Jávea Players are on the lookout for a new Box Office
Manager to join the backstage team and help put bums on seats for the planned four shows a year.
David and Judith Goodall have successfully filled the post but are stepping down after three years; now the group need someone to step up and fill the gap.
The box office task has been simplified by David and is willing to provide hands-on training, an operator’s manual he has developed and any support needed.
The aim is to eliminate cash sales at the door. It means the new manager - or managers - will not need to attend each show every night; and as a team effort work can be shared.
The current and previous managers found the job interesting, satisfying and fun - and it’s not onerous, there is about five hours work for each new show.
