QUITE A COMMOTION OVER OPPORTUNITIES AT RUMPUS THEATRE COMPANY
Rumpus is a lively, established theatre company with a strong reputation for stylish productions of popular and exciting new plays - they are “masters of the high audience appeal production”, Derbyshire Times.
With a proven track record in small- and middle-scale touring, Rumpus is seeking business sponsorship in the form of a bridging loan to set up its first high profile Number 1 tour. The Signalman - a new play based on Charles Dickens' classic, well-known ghost story - has had two very successful regional productions (by Rumpus in Chesterfield in 1997 and by Bill Kenwright at the Theatre Royal, Windsor, in 1998) and was described by the press as “ideal entertainment for a winter’s night”, Observer, and, according to the Windsor Express, “deserves to join the ranks of stage shows that really send a shiver up the spine”.
It therefore appears ripe for large-scale touring, and has the serious potential for a London West End transfer. For a very small investment, a potential sponsor would benefit from high profile national advertising in all promotional material and media exposure associated with the production, and the accompanying kudos of supporting a high-quality, popular appeal arts project for the duration of the production. The download button in the company's listing will provide more detail on what this sponsorship proposal actually involves, together with more about Rumpus.
