Another Noises Off veteran as SM it one of the toughest fun shows I have ever done.
Sardines, Sardines and Doors, Doors will be your catch cry.
Couple of tips
Rehearsals - create a prop running list. From the first rehearsal have a bunch of paper/plastic plates and follow those sardines.
Know the script, it is the one script I have read where the stage directions really have to be followed.
During the run - always check your door handles before the show as they get a good work out. It is one show where I tripled checked, then double checked props before the commencement of the show.
Enjoy, remain calm and enjoy. It is a wonderful show to call.
