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.

Old woman's stomach on showMy mum loves 'Am Dram' and persuaded me to watch one of her shows. If I had known she was playing a belly-dancing spice girl at the age of 55 I would not have attended. All I could do was remove my glasses, and wait for it to be over.
