Star Hellos

Hello all
I am a student and professional just starting my "career", but not just starting in theatre. Most of my background is in carpentry and props, but I'm mostly an all around kind of person.
I can already tell this will be a good place to waste time in rehearsals.
Awesome
Chandra

Yea, Chandra, finally someone who's not an LD or SD - Greetings from a fellow tech who loves to do carpentry and work with props (I just signed on to do props (and the set) for "The Big Bang" - there is an incredible wealth of information in these forums. I found the site looking for 19th century wall treatments!

Learn lots and have fun!

Let me know how that works for you, Van - i try that with my hubby and he just shakes his head and mutters something about creating a monster. I think it's his Frankenstein genes coming out again...or perhaps it's Eye -gore.

Tell me, is there anything that smells better than a saw ripping through a 2 x 4 in the morning - how come there are no songs about that? I'm just askin'!

Actually, now that you mention it - the Lumberjack Song does work on a variety of levels. There always has been this strange attraction between techs and Monty Python...guess like attracts like.

Chandra - you ARE a MP fan, yes? if not, what silly thing always sets you off?
