Curve Theatre (Ellie Kurttz)
SITA MCINTOSH has joined Leicester’s Curve Theatre as Chair of the Board of Trustees.
McIntosh, former Chief Operating Officer of London-based theatre website WhatsOnStage, will follow current Chair IAN SQUIRES, who will step down after six years in post.
Squires said: “Partings like these are always of 'such sweet sorrow' but I leave with the hugely experienced Sita McIntosh succeeding me, a refreshed and energetic board in place and the supremely gifted Chris Stafford and Nikolai Foster on the bridge.”
Curve theatre says McIntosh, who joined as a trustee in 2018, has a wealth of experience in UK theatre, including working for West End, Off-West End, regional venues and ticketing agents.
McIntosh commented: “Having joined the board at Curve almost four years ago and being part of the team through some exceptionally challenging times since then, I am thrilled and honoured to have been appointed Chair. I’m very excited to step into the enormous shoes left by Ian Squires and build on Curve’s extraordinary work and reputation already established by Chris and Nikolai”.
