SPONSORSHIP
The continued success of our group very much relies upon the support of the public in coming to our productions. But equally important is the support we receive from the many local businesses who give us their support by taking out one of our Sponsor Packages.
Your sponsorship will give you a short term local advertising exposure to a, predominantly, locally targeted audience. At the same time you can be proud that you are supporting a local community organisation who's membership give up many many hours of their free time, free of charge to produce highly delightful, enjoyable and, it has been said, professional quality musical theatre productions, for the entertainment of the local community and surrounding areas.
In return, these productions also aid the local economy by encouraging and introducing visitors to the area and the local businesses.
For further details of our sponsorship packages, or how you could support our group in other ways, please contact our Business Manager.

Spotlight Musical Theatre Group are proud to announce their Summer 2017 show is a stage musical adaptation of the classic rock opera, by The Who, Quadrophenia.
Show Director and Group Publicity Manager, Andy Osborne, said "After directing the NODA award nominated stage musical 'Tommy', also by The Who, it's taken a whole year of negotiation to get agreement direct from Pete Townshend's production company for Spotlight to put on this unique stage musical production, which was written by Stockport based group NK Theatre Arts"
Andy also said, "This is a first for an Amateur Group in East Anglia and Spotlight will be the Fifth Group in the World to ever present a stage musical adaptation of Quadrophenia.
Andy has been lucky in obtaining Show Sponsorship from AR Motorcycles Limited, Lowestoft. Manager, Jamie Hewitt, said "It's a pleasure to sponsor this production and we are assisting with the loan of a scooter for the duration of the show. We have connections with local Scooter Clubs so we'll be doing our bit to promote Quadrophenia"
Quadrophenia will be presented at the Public Hall, Beccles, from 27th June to 1st July 2017. Five shows The Who fans should not miss. Tickets will be available online from Friday 16th December via becclespublichall.co.uk
Andy is delighted to have secured a deal with Love Her Madly for the loan of 6 high quality, handmade dresses of the period. "Our 6 Modettes are going to look absolutely fabulous on stage". Many thanks to Nick and all at LHM. Visit them at www.lovehermadlyboutique.com

In June, some of the Bad Girls cast visited the disused HM Prison Blundeston for their 'Bad Girls the musical' photoshoot. It was attended by Kirsty Limacher, a Partner with Lucas & Wyllys Solicitors, who sponsored their third Spotlight show. Kirsty said at the time "I had a fun time this morning at the photoshoot representing the firm as show sponsor, and I'm really looking forward to seeing the show" - needless to say both Kirsty and the other members of Lucas & Wyllys Solicitors enjoyed the show.
