Theatre

It’s your hottest theatre production with a quality cast and ambitious scene changes, yet you’re stuck for how to get it noticed – really noticed, so that people near and far will pay to come and see it. Press notices generate some interest but to capture the essence of the production is a tall order without some visual assistance.

Helen James Productions has the skills and know how to give a flavour of what’s in store for a huge potential audience. We can interview key cast members and film samples of the show to create web video, podcasts and DVDs to promote the production, to your requirement and to suit your budget.

The Hot Mikado, directed and choreographed by Craig Revel Horwood of Strictly Come Dancing, toured the UK and has seen sell out audiences. The springboard for its success was at Newbury’s Watermill Theatre, where a web video was filmed by Helen James Productions, specifically to extend its marketing reach using digital media and the internet.

We understand the pressures on regional theatres to raise their profile and believe we can help. Afterall, if you can get your production noticed, it can make the difference between a half empty house and a sell out tour.

Testimonials

Tei Williams - Press Arts and Marketing, Watermill Theatre, Newbury

"I wanted to say many thanks to everyone on the team for the truly cracking Hot Mikado video you produced for us. The interview was interesting and fun, the filming of the action was crystal clear and the edit was brilliant. The end product is a joy and does the job of selling the musical brilliantly. The tour venues have been very pleased with the video and we all agree it will help enormously in selling tickets. Everything from your administration to the execution of the brief was spot on. Thank you".
