I apologize for my vagueness. The heads I am talking about come off of 360q Altman's. I've been working in the school for about four or five years (I dont keep track) and we have never done any sort of maintenance on them aside from cleaning the lenses and reflectors. Our ATD tried to solve the...

Recently, our theatre has had a rash of non-working heads for our Lekos. With a limited amount of fixtures and a rapidly dwindling supply of working heads, I am in dire need of some advice for fixing them. I've tested all of our cables and aside from a few twofers, all of them are operational...

I had a kid ram a very heavy an very large set piece into my foot, fracturing it. I bruised my ribs something nasty working in the catwalks. My fault, tripped on a cable a fell on one of the bars, i still had to focus and gel all the lekos which required me to lean over said bar. It was a very...

Hello, welcome!!! Hope you like it here!!!

Not only did the 'villans' have very little development time, the overall plot was rather dull and unexciting. When I go to see action movies I want to be on the edge of my seat in anticipation for what comes next not yawning and waiting for it to end. And they made Peter into a complete and...

Have any of you managed to got out and see Spiderman 3? Dunno I thought it was a tad dissapointing...

Yeah, I'm just so used to it being my fault....heh heh. We also have a weird purple fluffball on the pinrail now, courtesy of my friend. It has been dubbed the purple people eater.

In my school, our crew is exceptionally small so our building crew is our back stage crew and what you do at crew determines your position. This year was probably the first year that we had a so called "crew chief" in a long time. He was supposed to be there all the time and know what's going...

Wow... I never meant to cause such a large discussion/fight/argument by mentioning that. Fortunately we bought a new new sofa with our own money (I contributed half) and our current ALD decided that there will be absolutely no fooling around on that sofa. I plan to carry on that idea.

On Saturday I was doing a gig at my school, first time I EVER touched a soundboard in my life was roughly three minutes before the show started. Well, not exactly, but it was the first time I worked it completely unsupervised. So, I go to turn up the mike for the band side of the gym (Horrible...

Hello! hope you enjoy!!

Thanks Van.

Hello!! Welcome!!

I know this is jumping into the middle of a thread, but after some time perusing the threads around here I've come across many people talking about their actual classes that they've had in theatre during high school. I've been involved in theatre for roughly four years and my school does not...

We really don't have traditions, except for our own little 'don't sit on the sofa in the soundbooth.' Then again, it's probably universal in a high school that any sofa in an isolated area if off limits for casual sitting....
