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.

Whilst not strictly theatre-related...My work colleagues were kicking up a right old song and dance today. It might have been something to do with my Wagnerian operatic farting. Which might have been something to do with the fact that I had the day before drank several pints of very heavy Tetleys. Either way, it was a right old Carry On...
