    Theatrical Logic

    Yeah, theatre logic is something that's easily understood to people who work in it but for a thing that does actually largely do what it's supposed to, the names completely don't match. What annoys me quite a lot is how everything in theatre has 5 different names, even if it's the same thing. A...

    Hi

    Hi, name is Alex, I'm a 21 (22 as of the 21st of June) year old theatre technician who's going to college for it though I might as well not mention which one for privacy reasons. I have other personal details which nobody needs or wants to know. Been reading the forum since today and like how...
