Katie Kinnon
Marketing Manager
Katie joined TADLOP in 2022 for 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame' which is still her favourite show to date. Having never performed before, she was lucky enough to play Esmeralda alongside a super talented and welcoming cast, that inspired her to progress her musical theatre journey.

As Publicity Manager his role supports the Marketing Manager by ensuring outreach into the community through radio interviews, newspaper articles, photoshoots and other events.

Phil McIver
Business Manager
Phil joined TADLOP in 2022, not long after 'Guys and Dolls'. From then on, he has been focussed on the technical side of the performances TADLOP put on. Many may recognise him as part of the technical crew from Telford Theatre. When picking a favourite show, he would say '9 to 5' because it was so much fun, but 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame' was more impressive (musically and technically) - so each on their own merits. Phil is essential in ensuring we have a rehearsal venue and a stage to perform on, as well as making sure everything is done legally.

Kitty joined TADLOP in 2021 at the start of 'The Addams Family'. Sadly, she was not able to join the show at the time so was welcomed into TADLOP on Tour instead! Her favourite show with TADLOP so far has been 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame'. The music and staging were just beautiful and so much fun to perform!
