danburns Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Not a pantomime this year (but the other night it started to sound like it - "It's Behind you..."), we have decided to do David Farr's Nativity. Fun...we have one of the cast who is just like a 5 year old at a nativity, except he's not acting! I'm op-ing LX and SX, with some fairly cr@p gear...after track 21 the CD player no longer tells me how much time is remaining per track, and our new CD player hasn't turned up yet...oh the fun of ordering through maplins... Oh how I *love* am-dram at this time of year... Dan :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Some Bloke Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 I'm the "clever person" mentioned above who thought of using a DL1 to move an animated Tinkerbell around for Peter Pan! Having lit that show I then moved on to light Jack and the Beanstalk in Worthing. Just got back from that and have been called back to Worthing this weekend as the Producer has decided some sections need re-blocking (thus cues will change). Sounds like overtime to me! Both shows look pretty good though and Production Company seem very happy. I'm off to see what other people have done with their shows now. Thinking of writing a book: '101 ways to light the Ghost Gag'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solstace Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Will be doing Cinderella (no pun intended) in January/February - bit late I know ("oh no it isn't!"), but it's for the kids! Well, that's the Company's excuse, anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P. Funk Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 only thing I'm doing this year is a very small village am dram show 'Puss in Boots'. I'm meant to be lighting it, but seeing as the venue only has enough equipment to provide a white cover across the stage, I don't particularly see the point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erroneousblack Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Mine's quite a doddle this year after the last two years. The only real problem I have is chasing the various Vicki Pollards & Kevin The Teenagers off the stage when they're not supposed to be there. Not too difficult when your scary Northern accent man!
