I am a Dewalt fan through and through.  It is sturdy, reliable and worth the investment.

Stage Management: Plays & Musicals / Re: SAFETY: Food allergies in rehearsal

I am actually dealing with an actor who is seriously allergic to citrus.  It was even triggered by airborne causes like if someone peeled an orange around her.  It was never really a problem because we banned citrus from rehearsal, until someone from the costume shop didn't read my email to them and sprayed a citrus air freshener in the green room.  Needless to say, Benadryl is a SM's best friend and I always keep a supply in my kit.

The Green Room / Re: Snowed in in the South

In Dallas right now.  The roads have about 2-3 inches of ice and it is supposed to start snowing again in about an hour.  We had to cancel our final dress, opening night (tonight) and tomorrow night's show.  First time I have ever been involved in a cancelled performance.

My husband and I have spent the week off painting our house.
