TECHNICAL
The show is highly portable and can be set up in a variety of venues and spaces, inside or out. A minimum, clear stage area of 4 square meters is suggested. The set consists of a single suitcase or trunk. In a controlled theatre environment simple lighting switches between two states: warm and cool washes with occasional spots. An annotated script with full LX and SFX is provided in digital and hard copy. Sound design in QLab comes pre-installed on a laptop also provided by the company. All cues can be run by a single, competent, in-house stage manager or, if available, by two technicians operating sound and lights respectively. If required we can provide our own tech/stage manager. Outside of a theatre setting consideration will be given for page readings where professional sound and lighting systems are not available.
