A Few Introductions...
Well, first of all let me say an offical crew based hello to you all.
I thought it would be a splendid idea if I gave you a quick introduction to the touring crew and filled you in on what it is that they do exactly....to avoid any crew bus arguments i will proceed to do this based on first name alphabetically.
Anna Westwood - Tour/Stage Manager - Anna has the tough job of getting the cast (around 14 girls and 3 guys) to the right place at the right time. During the show it is her job to make sure everything runs smoothly, making sure scene changes happen at the right time and cast get on and off stage.
Craig (Crusty) Cursiter - Crew/Tea Boy - The baby of the crew Craig is great at making cups of tea. During the show he can be seen dashing across the stage to make sure the bits of set end up in the right place and secured down safely. He is also pretty good at pushing flightcases and tightening truss nuts and bolts. a bit of an all-rounder really.
Stephen (Sven) Jolly - Lighting Tech - I am responsible for making sure the crew get the gear into the venue and up in time. As i am the lighting tech i make sure that all the lights get put onto the truss in the right place. During the show I sit behind the lighting desk and press buttons.
Tim (Twixie/Timmy Two Shoes) Wickham - Video Tech - Tim is responsible for all the video stuff that goes on. He is the main man during the show as he press the button that sets it all rolling. He has a cool toy called a DoReMi which is basically a posh video player.
That is all the crew at the moment, we are still recruiting crew members so if you would like to come and join give the ngm office a call on (01454) 414880 and ask someone there about it.
While i am on a bit of a typing roll, i would like to put my thanks down to a few people who have made this show possible. Wigwam have been legends especially Mick Spratt and Mike Mcgurk who have gone well over the call of duty. Rob Collet your a real legend its been great. Phil Goldsworthy and Paul Braddock are still talking to me despite all the hassle and short notice. Dan Bowater and Steve McManus was great having you both along on the cameos. Greg Szabo and Dave Greenwood thanks for the experience. Nick Wood keep on truckin'.
Well i seem to have abused my position enough so i am off to do something else.
If you come along to a show please do come and say a friendly hello.
Excellent.
