Overview
The Speculator is set in Paris in 1720. The French playwright Pierre Marivaux is playing games with love and chance. Europe is in chaos. And John Law, a Scot from Edinburgh, is the richest and most powerful man in the world. He upsets order and alters the value of money. How long can his influence last?
Cast
Stage Management
The ASMs did some provisional props lists, risk assessments and props research tasks remotely before most props were cut due to Coronavirus safety measures.
However the ASMs did build an IKEA bed and mix some brown and black paint with some Cuprinol Oak finish wood stain which was then painted onto the bed as well as using the mixed brown and black paint to paint the top of a table.
the Tavern Crates and Barrels were borrowed from NTS.
Technical Stage Department
Design
There wasn't much technical challenges for the Stage Department in this show, the design consisted of painted flats and a raised deck. Our main challenge was the tracking backdrop flats.

Sound
This show had many complex factors regarding sound. Due to the COVID risk assessments all actors had to fit their own radio microphones and the sound crew were not allowed to touch the microphone on the actor. This led us to double micing all the cast. We had some challenges with wigs and masks but in the end it sounded great. We had to set up a broadcast mixing desk as the production was being filmed. Stuart mixed the mics for the room on the Yamaha QL5 and Conor adjusted levels on the Yamaha LS9 for the recording.
