Biographies

Alasdair Hawthorn - Director

This is Alasdair’s sixth consecutive panto production at the RSAMD. Since graduating from the Academy in the early 90s, he has directed and performed in many productions in theatre and television, as well as serving as Associate Director at the Courtyard Theatre, Hereford. Alasdair is particularly fond of panto and believes that life should be a pantomime (or cabaret, whichever is easiest!).

Marian Colquhoun - Designer

Marian graduated in 2000 from the University of Glasgow with Honours in Theatre Studies and Scottish Literature. In 2005 she graduated from the RSAMD with a BA in Technical and Production Arts, specialising in design and applied arts. Since graduating she has become Residential Assistant Designer for the New Danish Opera and has designed in Scotland and London. She also works as a prop maker at the Russell Beck Studio in London producing work for various West-End musicals, opera and ballet.

Simon Wilkinson - Lighting Design

Simon has designed lighting for productions in venues from London’s West End to the north of Scotland, and for companies including The National Theatre of Scotland, Nottingham Playhouse, Dundee Rep, Perth Theatre and the Byre Theatre. His lighting designs for Mary’s Wedding and Lion in the Streets were exhibited in the last two quadrennial exhibitions of the Society of British Theatre Designers. His designs for touring theatre have been seen in the majority of the UK’s large scale venues. Simon’s searchlight installation for the opening of Perth Concert Hall, “Light Fantastic”, was seen by over half a million people, prompting reports of an alien invasion.

Jamie Brotherston

Jamie is the real life Prince of the “Black Isle” in the Highlands. Previous credits have included: PC Hughes, HIDDEN; Hippollito, Women Beware Women; Ben, Stories for a Wild Night. His Royal Highness is glad to be finally treated in the manner to which he is accustomed.

Alan Burgon

Alan is a real boy, despite what Geppetto or his previous girlfriends have said. Previous credits include: William, HIDDEN; Polixenes, The Winter’s Tale; Surkalla, Mr Puntila and His Man Matti, and so forth...

Amy Cummings - Carpenter

Amy is the workshop barbie and has produced some lovely big things! She likes shoes and silly coloured laces in her booties. Her nail varnish is looking a bit tatty with all the hard work she has been doing. She hopes that you enjoy looking at the flashing piano steps as they were the hardest to build!

Natasha Falconer - Assistant Designer

Natasha has really enjoyed her time as Assistant Designer for Cinderella. The role has been very challenging and rewarding and a perfect excuse for her to use as much pink and glitter as possible, which is always good! Big thanks everyone for all their hard work and for making the King of Rock’s throne amazing!!

Danielle Flecher-Herd - Stage Manager

Danielle is in her third and final year specialising in bossing people around in the nicest way possible (or in other words stage management). She was the Deputy Stage Manager for HIDDEN which was in the Chandler Theatre earlier this year. She is now super loving the challenge of being the Captain of Cinderella. She hopes you enjoy the show as much as she has loved working on it!

Suzanne Goldberg - Props Workshop Manager

Suzie has loved her time in props despite being mistaken for an abominable snowman after being covered in polystyrene. She is looking forward to graduating providing she can unstick herself from the various things she has glued herself to. She will, however, never eat ice-cream again. Go team ice-cream!

Kirsten Hogg - Costume Maker

Kirsten is in her third year at the Academy, specialising in set and costume design. For this year’s panto Kirsten will be working her magic backstage by ripping people’s clothes off...for the quick changes.

Emma Hullin - Deputy Stage Manager

Kirsty McCabe - Costume Maker

Susan McCarroll - Wardrobe

Susan is in her third year specialising in wardrobe design and scenic art. She has enjoyed her time in wardrobe for panto making sure that Cinderella CAN go to the ball.

Francesca Rose - Scenic Artist

Francesca is in her final year at the RSAMD, where she has specialised in scenic art, stage management and production management. She has thoroughly enjoyed painting for panto this year. Francesca’s roles within the Academy include Stage Manager for 1st and 2nd year Contemporary Performance Practice shows, CPP Honours Year’s Christmas show and the final year Acting Showcase and Assistant Production Manager for 3rd year’s summer show.

Andrew Smart - Sound Designer

Hendy is currently a third year TPA student at the Academy. As well as specialising in sound design he is also working in electrics, lighting design and glass slipper repair. As well as being uber-geeky with all this technical stuff, Hendy is actually a charming, funny and sophisticated gentleman;) However his seven brothers - Doc, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, Bashful, Sneezy and Dopey don’t seem to think so, but his Mother Goose had to remind him that he is indeed sophisticato, and that such a supreme talent is a catch for any Cinderella! No wonder he wanted to sound design panto!

Peter Strain - Technical Stage Manager

This is Peter’s final technical management role at the Academy. He has thoroughly enjoyed the challenges that this particular show has presented and has enjoyed the process of overcoming these. Peter is looking forward to his remaining roles in his final year and hopes that they will be as challenging as this one.

Steven Wylie - Paintframe Manager

Steven has had a great time managing panto this year and enjoyed painting all the fab fifty designs and getting to glitter everything glittertastic! Steven is looking forward to Christmas and hopes Santa brings him lots of goodies under his tree. Merry Christmas.
