I was doing a production of Urinetown and it was opening night...we were all excited...about 5 mins before the places call one of the ushers comes into the green room (which is where all the tech's were...the actors were in the dressing rooms) and tell us all he needs pillows...we all kinda look at him funny and he says "some old lady fell down the stairs and says she broke her hip" great...so we delay the show 15 mins so she can get out of the theatre and get to the hospital..
intermission comes...i have to move some stuff offstage...and i have to revolve the well...revolve..we had scfolding on the revolve and one off the revolve...as it is going around the staris on the revolve catch on the scf. off the revolve and crack...so im doing that...intermission get delayed ...
durring the show we lost signal for 6 of the wireless mics...someone tapped theirs really loudly, almost breaking it. the band moniters stop working and many other things
to top off my long story...the lady is now sueing our theatre...
