Today we had an interview with Emma Joyce who is the Operations manager of The Acorn Art Centre.
The Acorn Has 5 Full time Members of staff.
These Are...
Toni = Director
Emma = Operations Manager
a Sound Technician
a Lighting Techinician
a person on the Box office
But the main People who are the Boss are The Board of Trustees.
The acorn is 41 years old and when it was bought it used to be a church which is very useful for the acoustics are really Good especially for Acoustic Performances.
12 years ago the Acorn received a Big Lottery Grant for the sum of Half a Million pounds this went on The Renovation of the Floor on the Main Theatre and Getting New Equipment after which they have been able to do Music Performances.
The Acorn Creates a Different Atmosphere for each type of show so for example a Rock show would Have the Band on a Stage near the Back of the Main Room where as a Stand Up Comedian will be on a stage with the Audience close to the Stage.
