Leatherman surge is pretty kickass

Ok I get it, I'll have to find a cure for my laziness, suck it up and just finish it. = ) Thanks anyway.

Thats probably what I should do. I was asking out of pure laziness. This script doesn't have a prop list, so I was just hoping someone else had something easily accesible that I could start with.

My theatre is doing "Annie Get Your Gun," and I have been talked into pulling props. Does anyone have a completed props list on hand that they could email me? Thanks

I was crew chief for our community theatre's production of Peter Pan a few years ago. Our director was planning on hiring someone to come in a do the set up for the flying rig, and then leave it to my high-school crew to operate it. My crew was all excited about it and really wanted to "make...

We all use gaff tape rolls as cup-holders, tie-line as shoelaces, and glow-tape as night-lights. What are some other innovative uses you have have found for everyday tech-theatre items?

I am 18, they are between 15 and 20. Instill ownership?

At our non-profit theatre, I am very often the crew chief for the larger shows. My crew is limited to first-time techs and people who didn't make it in the show and just want to hang out backstage. I have to take who I am given, I can't pick and choose and I can't kick someone out without a dang...

I've broken all my toes at least twice at different times (I can;t find any steel toes boots in my size). They're all crooked and bending funny ways. This wasn't me, but I saw a guy cut of the tip of his finger with a table saw. Lotsa blood. Pretty cool. I saw another guy screw the webbing...

Ohh I hate that feeling.When something like that happens at our theatre the director comes out on stage and says "sorry, our sound guy is having a little trouble, I'll get this fixed in a minute." I know how humiliating it is.

I was a secondary rigger for my theatre's last show, and somehow I was supposed to run rail and keep track of the crew and check the set after each scene change. But that's all beside the point. We were having a very rushed scene change during a tech rehearsal, and as I was flying out a drop...

I am looking for any interesting ideas people have used for the set for Annie Get Your Gun. We're designing that set right now, and any ideas would be greatly appreciated. We are specifically having trouble with the scenes in the arena and others related to the wild west show. We're having a...

So, I'm new here, as you can probably tell by the fact that I'm posting on the new member board. So, I thought I'd post a question. I am the crew cheif for the mainstage shows at my community theatre. We rent a large professional venue for two shows a year. Unlike the little theatre, we need...
