POWER OUTAGE!!!!
HEHEHE ... Guess what!! The whole campus lost power! SWEET!!! I was just working in the Pardoe theatre and everything went black. Twenty seconds later the emergency power came on. We thought one of the techs did something, but then we found the HFAC was out .... then a staff member called the Electricity Office when it first went out and it actually is the WHOLE campus! HA! How does that happen?!?! Good thing for cell phones! :-D

Stagehands have astonishing learning curves. It's not unusual for stage crews to have trucks full of unknown scenery arrive at a theatre on Monday, which we need to assemble and understand to open a show we've never seen before... on Tuesday night.
Most people, if confronted with such a task, would flatly say it was impossible.
Stagehands find ways to make it possible. We learn quickly, we draw upon years of experience, skills and training, and (all too often) we drink lots of coffee and work all night.
I've had one longstanding handicap in my career as a stagehand. I don't drink coffee.
