Flying Pigs<\/h2>\n

\"Flying<\/p>\n

The Flying Pigs first came together in 1997, when we were the last folk standing at the Aberdeen Student Show last night party. Within the year we performed our first show, \u2018Last Tango in Powis\u2019 at the Lemon Tree Studio Theatre, which attracted a sell out audience of close friends and dutiful relatives.<\/p>\n

They had another shottie the following year, with \u2018Where Seagulls Dare\u2019 which some folk who didn\u2019t know them came to see, and which most folk thought was a bittie better. Since then they\u2019ve been trying to get a bittie better every time, and for the last 15 years we\u2019ve been entertaining ever growing audiences throughout the North East and beyond.<\/p>\n

They headlined Aberdeen Arts Centre\u2019s first ever Comedy Festival in October 2001 and sold out there again in 2002. Then they moved to His Majesty\u2019s Theatre, first with \u2018The Seagull Has Landed\u2019, then \u2018Desperate Fishwives\u201d, \u2018How to Look Good Glaikit\u2018 , \u2018The Silence of the Bams\u201d returning to HMT in November 2013 for a two week run with our new show, \u2018Finzean in the Rain\u2019 .<\/p>\n

Sets In Motion are proud to have supplied set and stage management service to the Flying Pigs since their move to His Majesty\u2019s Theatre.<\/p>\n

Aberdeen Youth Music Theatre<\/h2>\n

\"AYMT\"<\/p>\n

AYMT was founded in 1992 by Angela Campbell and Karen Berry, who saw the need for an elite musical youth theatre in Aberdeen. A compilation of “songs from the shows” was performed at the College Of Education Drama Studio. Kenny Hossick joined them for the inaugural \u201cBye Bye Birdie\u201d in the Arts Centre. Two years later Shirley McGill came on board to direct \u201cSalad Days\u201d.<\/p>\n

After \u201cBugsy Malone\u201d and \u201cAnnie\u201d and to accommodate the large number of young people wishing to join, it was decided that two groups would rehearse the same show and so the complete double casting of shows began. This worked successfully for \u201cWizard of Oz\u201d, \u201cJoseph\u201d, \u201cScrooge\u201d and \u201cMe And My Girl\u201d.<\/p>\n

There was a demand for a younger group and so Junior AYMT was born. \u201cDazzle\u201d was the first junior show followed by \u201cThe Rocky Monster Show\u201d and many other successful productions. An intermediate group was established to give the maximum progressive training to members. So with \u201cSummer Holiday\u201d the \u201cInts\u201d arrived.<\/p>\n

This 3 tier structure with separate production teams is the structure that functions very successfully today. Over the 20 years AYMT have had many highlights. Performing \u201cLes Miserables\u201d in HMT to full houses in 2007 is one. Scooping the British premier of \u201cTale of Two Cities\u201d in 2010 is another.<\/p>\n

As AYMT continues to thrive, they see many ex members working professionally in the theatre world, on the west end stage, behind the scenes, in advertising and in education. We are delighted to provide sets and stage management service for all AYMT shows since 1999.<\/p>\n

Inverurie Pantomime<\/h2>\n

\"Inverurie<\/p>\n

In 1980, His Majesty\u2019s Theatre in Aberdeen closed for refurbishment meaning that there would be no pantomime that year in Aberdeen. A group formed and performed Peter Pan in the Inverurie Town hall and productions have been staged each year since.<\/p>\n

In 2001 Trap 4 Limited took over the running of the Inverurie Pantomime. In 2008 the production company Trap 4 was purchased by Sets In Motion and returned the Panto to its roots of traditional pantomime at the heart of the community. Since taking over in 2008 the Panto has raised well over \u00a330,000 for local good causes.<\/p>\n

As well as running the Panto, Sets In Motion has provided all the stage sets and technical services for the Inverurie Panto since 2001.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
