Contemporary Performance Practice Collaborations 2017
CPP Collaborations contain performances from all CPP year groups.
First, we had performances from three different groups of CPP3 students. There was one showing of each performance, with a one day venue turnaround in between groups. All of these groups used the traditional end on & seating bank set up of the venue. Each group had 4 tech sessions - including a dress rehearsal - to make their show happen!
We then had a performance from the full CPP2 year group. We had a one day venue turnaround plus a focus session for this.
The piece was in the round and once the space was set up they required very little tech support, meaning the group had two days of rehearsals in the CST. There were two performances of this piece.
Finally, we had performances from three different groups of CPP1 students which were directed by CPP4 students. There was a one session venue turnaround in between each group, and four tech sessions per group. The first group used the seating bank, the second was in traverse and the third was end on with the audience on deck rather than the seating bank.
The Production Team
The Production team was formed of PTM students from all year groups plus two externals.

The production team changed slightly after the CPP3 performances. Although the HOD's stayed the same, the rest of team swapped departments and we gained some additional members. Our lighting designer also changed from Ross McCrone to Stephen Keenan. Ross is sadly not in the above picture as it was taken after he had left us to LD the ballet showcase. We were joined for the final two weeks of the process by David who was on work experience with us.
Although there are roles and departments allocated, the only way for CPP to work is for everyone to be happy to pitch in with all different departments!

Stage Management
The role of stage manager on CPP is very different to that of a more traditional production. The main duties of the SM are risk assessments, time management and floor management, as well as being the main channel of communication between the different technical departments, the cast and the directors.
The stage management team does very little propping or sitting in rehearsals. It is important to go to some sharings to get a feel for the piece and to understand the risks, however sitting in rehearsals for longer than a sharing is not a particularly productive way to spend time & often makes the CPP performers feel uncomfortable.
