SOCIAL MEDIA
Roo Theatre Company’s Marketing has a deliberate and considered social media strategy in place to promote productions. However, we would love your help and support to promote the show!
Production Teams are encouraged to appoint cast, crew members to create content to help promote their shows.
We use social media to connect with our audiences and allow them to engage with our productions on a deeper level, with videos, images, blog posts and more. Our audiences LOVE behind-the-scenes content, so we encourage cast, crew and creatives to get involved in generating and sharing this content.
It’s important to be aware that during your time with us you’re publicly associated with the Company, and what you say or do online can impact the image of the Company. We have put together a few simple guidelines for when you’re mentioning or tagging Roo on social media to help you along the way!
