Considering that this is a very complex production technically, and the fact that both lighting and sound operators are taking on these roles for the very first time to be greeted with an array of challenges that includes projections from a laptop, lighting cues that need split second timing, sound outputs from four different sources (sometimes simultaneously), the fact that we managed to stay totally on time throughout the day is remarkable to say the least. The play is running at an hour and forty-five minutes, and minute for minute must be one of the most technically intricate projects we have undertaken for a long time. It is a glowing testament to everyone who was present today that we worked long, hard and fast without, apart from a couple of very momentary flash points, falling out with each other.
And, even though I say so myself, the show is looking bloody great!
Must go now. My brain feels like cotton wool.
