Aside from hanging up his costume to dry post show, my primary responsibility was meeting him offstage with a liter of water and a cool wet towel to drape over his neck every time he exited.
Starlight is "indoor" now, not the audience but just the stage house, and thus, is air conditioned. Back when it was pure outdoor it was really hard on actors. As it is, it's no picnic for them.
