Alan Cameron, your host, will be talking with Community Theatre practitioners, students and people interested in Community Theatre and of course participants..\n\nThese conversations will cover what Community Theatre is, what it is for, the details of how we work, set up and run projects, how difficult it can be to get people involved and how much participants get out of it once they are involved.\n\nI will be talking with Directors, participants, facilitators, retired practitioners with interesting historical perspectives, students - and if you are any of the above and would like to join a conversation in a future podcast, or would like to provide feedback, do let me know at: alanc658@aol.com..I am also on twitter as: @comtheatrepod. We need to tell people what we do and help the spread of good practice. \n\nAnd please - tell other people about the podcast. This is series one of 8 episodes, and the next series will go ahead ..... if there is enough interest.","podcastLogo":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/imglogo/image-logo/18759309/community_theatre_who_needs_it_V1bfm2d.jpeg","podcastShareLogo":"https://d2bwo9zemjwxh5.cloudfront.net/image-logo/18759309/community_theatre_who_needs_it_V1bfm2d_1200x628.jpg?s=7b93eca956f47d9068d2b149f21042da&e=jpeg","podcastUrl":"https://alanc658.podbean.com","podcastCanSearched":true,"feedUrl":"https://feed.podbean.com/alanc658/feed.xml","theme":"elegant","podcastDeepLink":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-r578w-11e3e8d?from=usersite","removePodbeanBranding":"no","brandingLogo":null,"timeZone":{"timeZoneId":17,"gmtAdjustment":"GMT-04:00","useDaylightTime":1,"value":-4,"text":"(GMT-04:00) Atlantic Time (Canada)","daylightStartTime":"Second Sunday Of March +2 Hours","daylightEndTime":"First Sunday Of November +2 Hours","timezone":"America/Halifax"},"podcastDownloads":null,"totalEpisodes":18,"showComments":true,"iOSAppDownloadLink":null,"customizeCssUrl":null,"androidAppDownloadLink":null,"showPostShare":true,"showLike":true,"author":"alanc658","enableEngagementStats":true,"shareEmbedLink":"https://admin5.podbean.com/embed.html?id=pbblog-r578w-11e3e8d-playlist","language":"en","sensitivitySessionExpireTime":3600,"podcastApps":[{"name":"Podbean App","link":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-r578w-11e3e8d?from=usersite","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/podbean-app.png","title":null}],"components":{"base":[{"id":"MainStyle","val":"light"},{"id":"Font","val":"Avenir"},{"id":"SecondaryFont","val":"Avenir"},{"id":"PlayerColor","val":"#8fc31f"},{"id":"PlayerStyle","val":"player1"},{"id":"PlayerWave","val":"show"},{"id":"Favicon","val":null},{"id":"CookiesNotice","val":"hide"},{"id":"CookiesNoticeContent","val":"
