Title
Welcome to Grassy Knoll Theatre
Description
Actors Dave Brinson and Steve Scott formed GKT in the summer of 2002. The Company is named after a geographical feature of Hampden Park in Eastbourne (and has no association with JFK beyond the TLA!). We are committed to staging exciting, high quality theatre with a special emphasis on new writing.
GKT is a member of the Independent Theatre Council. However, at the time of writing we receive no outside funding. All projects are supported by loans or donations from our generous individual sponsors. GKT is currently an unicorporated organisation and as such is non-profit making and has no shareholders. The running of the company is supported by our Advisory Board.
GKT's policy is to work with arts professionals (recognising the breadth and diversity of the "profession" in the 21st century) and students of theatre or related arts. If suitable funding is granted to a production, it is our stated intention to employ actors and staff on the appropriate ITC rates and contracts. However, where this is not the case, artists will be invited to participate on a fully transparent profit share basis.
