On the Tech side of things...

The Tech Crew's first day was packed with action, laughter, and tears. Onstage, we started to build a performance space modeling the one we will use in Scotland, on lunch break we laughed over jokes about Haggis and Braveheart, and later cried when we saw the Dollar to Pound exchange rate.

 

Forget the blue face paint Mel Gibson, I found something even more terrifying.

Backstage, Propmaster Alex discovered that there is a critical shortage of deer antlers for sale online, so ASM Peter set to work with wire, cloth, and glue to make one. (Jeff rejected "John and Peter's infallible plan to hunt a deer with power tools" for some odd reason)

Meanwhile onstage, work to recreate our Scotland venue was well underway, and I managed to bug costume managers Dani and Helen enough for a photo.

See Dani, that wasn't so hard was it?

Work on the lights begun, and unfortunately I couldn't help out with the tedious wiring because I had some extremely important Production Manager issues to attend to.

Hey guys I gotta double check the props list real quick.

Jokes aside, both the cast and crew are crazy excited to be going on this trip. As Jess said, be sure to check regularly for updates, we'll be doing them the whole time!

Production Manager, 

John Gudgel
