We're greatly encouraged by the appearance of this preview piece on PLASTICINE in the most recent edition of Irish Theatre Magazine.
Cast and crew having been slaving away till all hours, all week long, adding the highly intricate technical elements of the show to the physical drama.
We hear that there are no less than 12 (TWELVE!!) follow-spot operators - for the lay people out there, a follow spot operator is the person who sits behind a large spotlight that is used to pick out individual performers as they move through the space.
So twelve of those, not to mention the people operating the rest of the lighting design, sound design and the range of video feeds that are coming in through cameras recording in realtime during the show and through playback videos.
Put that together with 10 actors, 15 community cast and another handful of production crew working under the stage manager and you begin to get an impression of the logistics involved in the act of rehearsing and performing this show.
And we haven't even begun to count set-builders, riggers, accountants, PR & marketing people, admin staff etc.... the entire project is a massive undertaking.
The only way we can really convince you of this is if you come to see the show! See the spectacle for yourself, read the long list of names of people involved in the show programme, have a pint at the Foyer Bar in the Savoy.
YOU CAN BOOK TICKETS HERE
P.S. We have a trailer video to come later today and we're SO excited to share it with you. Stay tuned!!
