On the stage
Too shy to ever appear on stage myself, I still hung around theatres like a bad smell when I was younger - lighting and set design were what I was good at.
Backstage we'd attempt to sabotage every production - us lighting geeks would wind up the sound man by putting the remote "pause" button for his reel-to-reel tape machine on his chair, so when he sat down it'd start running, ruining his cues. Actors would do scenes out of order to make our lives hell. It was great and I don't know why I don't still do it.
Tell us your stories of life on the stage.

This SHOULD be a good question for me as I used to work on the technical crew at my secondary school. It was great, we used to miss lessons and stuff to go and light people up and play music at them.
We had so many laughs but for most of them you would probably have to have been there. . . I'll relate back to this post when I can think of a good story.
I'm sure this will keep you all in suspense.
