So moving the relay worked! Yea! Reliable smoke, and Jenny/Darrel did the best magic cue of the whole run last night. Congrats!
On to other tech things, did you know that the official definition of tech includes lights, sound, effects, costumes, props, and scenery? Yes? Probably because you are a theatre person and not a newbie like me. So, to talk about some of the scenic design for this show.....
The original production listed in the script as off Broadway talked about the sparse scenery used. When scenes changed the flats were flown in and out of the stage. Well, if you've been to the Citadel you know we're not flying anything in and out of the stage, except for maybe Bruce the bat during the warm summer months.
So Regina came up with a unique idea to have rotating stage pieces, each side was a different scene. Joe helped her build them and now we have 36 flats attached to lazy Susan mechanisms that spin easily with one person. The three pictures here are all of the same place on the stage, just different sides of the spinner. If I can remember tonight I'll get some video to post here.
Stay techie my friends!
