On Tuesday 27th May at 7:30pm we took to the stage to perform our debut show as a theatre company; Three Words. The journey has been a long but exciting one filled with laughter and lessons, the whole process has taught me an awful lot about the hard work and energy needed to succeed as a theatre company.
When show night arrived, we were all prepared and desperate to get on that stage. We were greeted by a high energy audience which was just what we had hoped and in that moment I knew they were going to love what we were about to deliver.
Although I was primarily a performer in the show, as my secondary role within the company is the marketing manager, I reflected on the show and process from a marketing point of view. Everything I had organised and created in terms of promoting the show was leading up to this day and most of all ticket sales and audience feedback.
Due to this, I have collected information of our total ticket sales, audience feedback and our total number of social media followers.
Tickets sold:
163
Audience feedback (taken from twitter):
‘Three Words was a perfect blend of heartache, humour & organised chaos! Really innovative and relatable, congrats to all!’
‘The performance was absolutely brilliant tonight! I cried and I laughed… just… amazing!’
‘Nice one @noaddedsugarTC, I wasn’t sure what to expect but it was hilarious and emotional.’
Social media followers:

I was extremely happy with all of our totals and the feedback we have received. The show was everything we wanted it to be and we hope to continue to succeed with this show and company in the future.
So watch this space!!
