Unexpected Bonus for On-line Theatre in Rugby

The Macready Theatre in Rugby recently broadcast their second professional live theatre performance to schools. CEMEX are the annual sponsor and support the educational programmes of the theatre. This has always enabled schools in the local area the opportunity to have access to STEAM subjects/workshops and allows students from schools without drama funding to have the necessary resources to complete the curriculum.

As a result of the pandemic and the need to go to digital, together we have been able to reach more students across the globe!

The Director of Macready commented –

“…I know that this is being broadcast internationally and that over 2,000 children in schools in the UK, but also in China and Malaysia will be watching. The live streaming is provided by Fly on The Wall Event Broadcasting, and we have been able to bring this company in to broadcast professionally, and to keep theatre ‘live’ during these difficult times thanks to CEMEX’s generous sponsorship”.
