So we finished the run of How To Succeed In Business... last night with a pretty good performance, followed by one of the best aided get-outs I have ever seen - we had a good sized bunch of people helping, cheerfully, get the set out, everything cleaned up, and finally repainting the stage floor - the stage surface is hardboard with normally a coat of graphite grey paint on it, if someone wishes it a different colour for a show we have to return it to normal afterwards.
The real shame is that, despite a stonking show, lots of energy and really good staging and set, the audiences were disappointing because (we believe) its not a well recognised show (despite being a real big one back in the 60's).
Afterwards we had a post show party - pie and peas. And then I collapsed into bed, and still feel fairly zomby-like today.
About Me
- nigel
- I'm a sysadmin-come-software-engineer who escaped from the world of pseudo-hardware many years back (used to do VLSI design). I've been involved with free software for many years, with linux for around 15, and mail systems for a similar length of time.... and I also stage manage for a local theatre, which can give an odd mix.
