For the stage we used the 3 different levels of rostra already in the concert hall and extended the back 600mm high platform with steel deck to allow for an exit for the cast and band. For this extra platform we needed 4 bits of 8x4 deck and 1 bit of 4x4 all with 600mm high legs. There are also 2 sets of stock treads in the pit that we used SL and SR for easy access to the platform. | For the stage we used the 3 different levels of rostra already in the concert hall and extended the back 600mm high platform with steel deck to allow for an exit for the cast and band.

With more glitz than a glitter ball, and more glamour than Strictly, get into the Christmas spirit with the stars of our Musical Theatre course and a band of our Jazz students putting on a Christmas show unlike any other!
Technical Stage Management
The role of the stage department on Swingin' Into Christmas is to facilitate all of the masking, stage and usually snow effects in the show! The crew are also required to assist Stage Management, sound and LX when required.
Masking
The normal set up for swingin' is to use 5 hard maskers usually used in the Athenaeum to 'frame' the stage. This year due to weather and restrictions with the piano store we were unable to use them so we substituted the hard maskers to 4 stock 4000x8000 soft blacks. In some ways these look much better than the hard maskers once up as they fully frame the stage and 'hug it', but, they are much more difficult to get into place as the Concert Hall is not designed to rig blacks. If using soft's you should be prepared to use unusual sizes of scaffolding tube and multiple lengths of rope to rig and pull them into place. Make sure the scaffolding you use is black and the soft's are wrapped over the bar or 'concert hung' as they will be seen.
Staging
For the stage we used the 3 different levels of rostra already in the concert hall and extended the back 600mm high platform with steel deck to allow for an exit for the cast and band. For this extra platform we needed 4 bits of 8x4 deck and 1 bit of 4x4 all with 600mm high legs. There are also 2 sets of stock treads in the pit that we used SL and SR for easy access to the platform.
Lighting
