On the stageToo 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.

on my kneesIt was in a talent quest at high school, i was playing air-guitar, miming to Europe's "the final countdown" while a group of girls danced around on stage, in a sort of anti-war dance-music fest..
anyhoo,
at one point i was meant to run across the
stage and slide on my knees to the front of the stage, pulling my best guitar-solo face.
I managed to slide right across the stage and off the end into the terrified front row of year 7's
hehe
Maybe this should have gone in last weeks question, but everyone who saw it said it looked pretty cool.
