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.

My only appearanceson the stage would be my junior school plays. In my last year there, we did another musical nativity play. I'm sure most of you were in crappy nativity plays at some point. Some of you probably even played Joseph or some other 'major' character. Well, to that I say: FUCK YOU AND YOUR OH-SO-MORTAL ROLES! I WAS GOD! Perhaps it went to my head a little.
the year before we did the tale of Sweeney Todd. I was jealous of my friend steve, 'cause he got his throat cut while I was stuck in the chorus, pretending to play marbles.
