Stage Management: Plays & Musicals / Re: Guillotine
« on: May 26, 2008, 01:35 pm »
I just did Pimpenel last summe and what we did was build a guillotine that was not a fancy magicians one but it just went to just above the actors head and when it started to fall in the opening number it went into a blackout becasuse we had that huge scene change right after that to the garden. And at the end when Percy died we used a fake head and it looked very decent....except for the time when it rolled off the guillotine platform and into the orchestra pit.....that was a good day....HA

It was amazing! It was my first time seeing the show and I was blown away and then I did get to go and talk to the SM afterwards and that was the best part! He showed me the prompt book and it was set up just like mine and i think that was the best Christmas present ever!!!

Do you know of any Italian theatres that would do that?

Something I can sing along to in the car. Then, about two months into said show, something that I can sing along to whilst bashing my head in with a beer bottle to try and get the shows songs out of my head.

Musicals all the way.

Hahahahahaha! I totally understand! Les Mis still sends shudders down my spine!
I do love musicals even though working on something new just brings me closer to the project
