I live in an amazing town. The Stratford Shakespeare Festival is one of the largest theatre companies in North America. There are four theatres and the shows are run in Rep. The crew has to do a changeover. meaning changing from one show to another, and they have two hours to do it. In this video you can see the progression on the mainstage. If you look closely you will see one of the stagehands wearing a black hemp RKilt. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiUng...ure=youtu.be&a
enjoy

Ah, yes...but I think that the stage hand should keep off of the ladders, stairs and upper level areas, or he shall certainly give his peers a show of his own!

Almost every year I go to the US Institute for Theatre Technology conference and there are usually several guys there in UK's. Most of them work for Flying by Foy (they fly Peter Pan) and a few other companies.
Wish I could go this year but we are opening a new building and I can't find the time.

But Foy nearly lost the contract thinking that The festival here was a community players group. Fortunately someone in the organization realized, that in fact we're a multi- million dollar event.

Yes I saw the fella in the black hemp RKilt but did I not also see the famed stage managaer Robert Pel in green tights even though he's not connected to the Peter Pan production in any way?

Now when I was a youth I did play Peter Pan and will admit to the wearing of green tights then. But now I sport a thick mane of blond hair on my legs, whilst the blond mane on my head is thinning.
