MEET THE Tauntonians WE TALK TO BUSINESSES IN AND AROUND THE TAUNTON AREA WHO ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT WHAT THEY DO... BREWHOUSE THEATRE HANNAH HARRISON, MARKETING MANAGER TELL US MORE ABOUT YOUR ROLE AT THE BREWHOUSE I oversee the marketing and communications strategy for Taunton Brewhouse, making sure that we effectively promote our brand, services, and events. This involves planning and implementing new ways to engage audiences. I’m also responsible for the more day-to-day marketing activity, including creating fun content for social media, crafting emails, and diving into the delightful world of data analysis to uncover the latest trends and insights. WHAT DO YOU MOST LIKE ABOUT WORKING AT THE BREWHOUSE HANNAH? I love the creativity of the job as it means I get to be endlessly imaginative. As a receiving house, we have new events almost every day of the week, which means that no two days are ever the same. My favourite parts of the job would have to be working with the visiting artists and companies to brainstorm fresh ideas, engaging with our lovely community through outreach events, and working on our annual Christmas show. This year we’re doing Pinocchio – it’s going to be a charming production filled with original music and captivating puppetry, perfect for all the family! YOU’VE GOT A PACKED YEAR OF SHOWS THIS YEAR. ANY SHOW’S YOU’RE PARTICULARLY LOOKING FORWARD TO? I really enjoy live, original music, so I’m looking forward to seeing award-winning jazz artist Clare Teal, and folk musicians Jamie Yost and Taylor T. I also secretly enjoy a lot of the family productions, so I’ll probably pop in to see Zog and the Flying Doctors and will definitely be soaking up the last of the summer sun at our outdoor production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream/ Twelfth Night. WHERE CAN I FIND OUT MORE ABOUT WHAT’S ON? You can find out all about our wonderful events at www.tauntonbrewhouse.co.uk, or by calling our Box Office on 01823 283244. We’re also very active on social media, so would love for you to follow us @brewhouselive. DRIVETEC JAYNE COOPER TELL US MORE ABOUT WHAT IS NEW FOR 2024?
