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.

And this one time…At band camp.
Got drunk, fell off stage, forgot my lines and wet my pants. Instrument broke and I played a small part. And my best mate got the lead whilst all the technicians were fools.
Sheesh. What a dull question. What am I going to read all week now…?
The End.
