Who we are:
Wattle & Daub is a Bristol-based puppetry and visual theatre company comprised of Co-Artistic Directors Laura Purcell Gates and Tobi Poster. We make work for adults that explores untold stories using puppetry, live music, and grotesque, beautiful imagery. Wattle & Daub is an Associate Artist at Tobacco Factory Theatres.
Who we are looking for:
Wattle & Daub are looking for a rehearsal pianist to work with them during the rehearsal period of their new show The Depraved Appetite of Tarrare the Freak, a small-mid scale chamber opera for puppets that will be touring the UK from autumn 2015.
The ideal person will be of an exceptional playing standard and have previous experience of performing as part of an ensemble.
The company is quite a way along with the development of the piece, and it already has a very clear aesthetic and musical style. We are looking for someone who can work under direction of the Musical Director and respond to the existing musical structure of the show. This short trailer will give you an idea of the musical style.
The Depraved Appetite of Tarrare the Freakwill be fully developed in summer 2015 and premiere at the 2015 Bristol Festival of Puppetry in late August/early September 2015, followed by performances at Suspense in October 2015 (both festivals confirmed). It will tour in late spring 2016.
We would also be interested in applicants who were interested in fulfilling both rehearsal and performance pianist roles.
W&D’s musical influences include Stephen Sondheim, Benjamin Britten and Leonard Bernstein.
