| Have you heard? |
Some of you may not have heard that Queen Margaret University can no longer afford to run the Theatre Production and Acting Courses. They will be run out over the next 2 / 3 years. Please help lobby for equality in conservatoire funding by adding to the online petition now which is approved and up on the Downing Street website. It is calling for equality between Scottish and English training subsidy for conservatoire training in theatre. To view and add to the petition, please visit: Add your name to the petition here:

| FACEBOOK & BLOGGING |
Facebook There is now a Facebook site: Friends of the SMA. Its completely independant of the SMA, though you will need to be approved by the three SMA Members who have set it up. You dont need to be an SMA Member to join it. There are already 51 people registered, so it looks to be going really well and we hope you will consider joining. Blogging We have a couple of volunteers to start a stage management blog, but we shall always be looking for more people, so what ever show you are working on, in what ever job and at what ever stage of the production, if you think you might be interested, then please do get in touch with the SMA Office!

| EQUITY & STAGE MANAGEMENT |
Sylvia Carter, SMA Board Member also serves on the Equity Stage Management Committee. The committee currently only has between 6-8 people serving when it should really have 10-12. They only meet around 4 times a year so if you have any interest in this subject; if you have got 'hot under the collar' with regard to Equity and Stage Management, then one way to be proactive is to look at ways of solving problems from the inside. Click on the link below for a few more details and contact Sylvia for an informal chat on: sylvia.carter@blueyonder.co.uk or 07973 320 372.
