We, as a group, are very fortunate to own all the lights we frequently use - most groups hire them from various local sources. Add another source to the list - us!

We can hire lights to your group at very competitive rates. In return, all we ask is, apart from treating them with care, is that bulbs that fail are replaced, you settle your dues promptly and place a small credit in your programme.

If you wished, we can also provide experienced manpower to design, mount and operate the lights for your show or event. Please contact Richard Clayton - Norwich (01603) 664422 for further details.

Julie, our costume mistress, has a huge variety of costumes and is more than likely to be able to lay her hands on the costumes you require.

We also have a fair quantity of sound equipment, which we can hire out if required. We have a public address system (mixer amplifier and speakers) which is more than adequate for most purposes and also 4 radio microphones (all on separate frequencies).

We also produce a lot of sound effects on computer, so you can send us a shopping list, we may well be able to supply a quantity of suitable sound effects on a custom written CD-R which can be played from the majority of CD players (changing standard in CD technology mean that some older CD's cannot read CD-R's)

We can supply sound effects / music in the common formats - WAV, Midi or MP3.

If you wished, we can also provide experienced manpower to design, and operate the sound requirements for your show or event. Please contact Andrew Cliffe - (07798) 651441 for further details.

We often have shows in production or that have been recently done, that could be dusted off and performed locally. We have done this fairly frequently for several local organisations.

Please bear in mind that this requires a fair amount of advance warning, and organisation. Please make enquiries in writing to the following address:

Rackheath Players,
c/o 26, Sir Edward Stracey Road,
Rackheath,
Norwich,

Please include the type of material that you may require and duration, what facilities would be provided by you or the venue - (sound , lights, staging, dressing rooms etc) and as much information as possible including the type of audience (we don't want to offend people). Enquiries will be discussed at the next available Committee meeting (the Committee meet generally every 4 weeks) and we will communicate a reply to your group promptly.
