Who is an ambassador?

Well, hello hello, my Dears! Hope you are all well!

Today, I want to talk to you about an Ambassador's role at the Coliseum. What does that involve and who can do it?

Naturally, we think of the definition: an Ambassador is a Representative, someone who connects with the public, promoting and representing the views, values and ideas of the company.

All of which, in this case, can be summarised in the Theatre's Mission Statement. "To produce a high quality entertainment for people from different cultures and help build a cohesive society".

One must agree, this is something we all need.

When I say, an Ambassador connects with the public, I mean a good representative not only promotes his/her company but also carefully listens to the needs the public to which the theatre ultimately serves.

An Ambassador is, sort of, like a bridge.

Of course, the role would certainly benefit from your pretty detailed understanding of the process, and some crazed obsession with literary works wouldn't go amiss.

I could go on and on reciting all the relevant interests but there wouldn't be enough time in the world, and I hope that, perhaps, dear readers, some of you have recognised yourselves in this description! :-)

However, there is a whole other side to the role of a Coliseum Ambassador, particularly for those who are new in the world of Dramatic Arts. One of the benefits being a chance to experience lots and lots and lots of new things. Even though the Theatre asks of you to give your time and thought to the cause, it returns it all and ten times more!

And, what exactly, is listed in the Recruitment section of the Coliseum website. So go on, have a nosey!

I am very grateful you took these precious minutes out of your day to read my short (very short indeed!) blog. Thank you for that, I hope you enjoyed it!

Until the next time...
