WMTC Welcomes new committee of Management Member (18th May 2008)
 I would like to take this opportunity to welcome aboard to WMTC's committee of management, Mark Spencer.

Mark is currently playing "George" in our production of The Wedding Singer.

 

For over 10 years, Mark has been involved in numerous theatrical productions in and around Melbourne, both as a performer, choreographer, producer and production manager.

 

Performance credits include Song and Dance, Fame – The Musical, Jesus Christ Superstar, Grease (Catchment Players) Children of Eden (Night Owl) Chess, Hair, (Altona City Theatre) Rent (Stella) and Night Owl’s Godspell (for which he received a Dancer’s Commendation from the Victorian Music Theatre Guild) as well as various showcases and concerts.

 

His choreographic credits include Godspell, Jesus Christ Superstar, The Catchment Concert and Don’t Stop Me Now for GO! Productions, a not-for-profit theatre company that he also co-founded in 2003.

 

Mark prefers to be called Spence and is ecstatic to be involved with WMTC Inc as part of the Committee of Management.

Spence's first role as part of the Committee of Management will be as Production Manager for our up and coming production of "Musical Chairs"

Regards

Marcus Cassidy-Anderson

The Zonta Clubs Mission is to;

  • improve the legal, political, economic, health, educational and professional status of women through service and advocacy;

  • work for the advancement of understanding, goodwill and peace through a world fellowship of executives in business and the professions;

  • promote justice and universal respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms;

  • be united internationally to foster high ethical standards, implement service programs, and provide mutual support and fellowship for members who serve their communities, their nations and the world.
