CREW REQUIRED FROM VENUEWe tour our own sound technician that can also call the lights…We require at least one person to help load in and set up our equipment.A house tech that understands your audio equipment etc. so we can plug into your system, and a lighting operator. (This could be one person - if they fit all the criteria)

Two small tables/blocks on stage for water.We require a drum riser (if available) if the show is with the band.We can supply some white lycra sales to fly to break up a large black backdrop if reqd.

LIGHTINGWe can provide all lighting ourselves if the venue has none installed.If the venue has installed lighting then our lighting technician will call the lights, and also provide a lighting cue sheet. But we do need a lighting operator.We can manage with basic lighting as long as there is enough front white light to light the principles, and some colour washes. Obviously if you have a full rig with moving lights that is great…and a follow spot or two is also appreciated. Haze/ smoke is also great if available…

SOUND

We can provide sound equipment ourselves if the venue has none in place.If the venue has a system installed then we will just bring our own foh mixer with playback and racks and plug into your system (either through your desk or directly). We do require room at the foh position, or alternatively we can sit somewhere in the auditorium of at the side if it is loose seating. We don’t need any fold back if it is the 2 piece show as the principals are on IEM’s which we provide. However if we are using the band then 3 monitors (1 send) are required. We operate the fold back from our own foh console. Full tech spec is available.

AV

We can run projection for this show, but it is not critical. If the screen(s) are not in the optimum place – it can detract from the show.

If the venue has screens and projectors in place – we can look at running AV, but if not then this is not critical.

WARDROBE

This show has one costume for part 1 and a costume change during interval.Venue will need to supply Minimum 1 dressing room (for no band show)Or 2 dressing rooms / 1 large dressing room – if the show is with the band.

FREIGHT NOTES

If venue is supplying the production – we will not need a loading dock, but will need direct access to the performance area, as we will still have some equipment.

CRITICAL ISSUES

We have no critical issues for this show, however as we are bringing our own audio mixer and other playback equipment – it is preferred if possible for the bio box position to be easily accessible without flights of stairs. However we do understand that this is not always possible.
