Overview
Due to COVID- 19, our year group was split into 4 groups to learn. For Innerspace, we split our year group in two. Groups C + D came together to fit up our show: 'Outer Space' on the 10th December and performed it to select staff and the rest of the class on the 11th.
Theme
Our initial thoughts were that we could use nerf guns to stage a battle. This quickly progressed into our final idea of 'Outer Space', a video-game walkthrough with a game tutorial voiceover.

The Set
With no budget, our team had to work with what was already in the space. As there were already 3 strips of black dance floor we decided this would be our "performing area/ stage." Due to Covid - 19 restrictions, we had to minimise how many people we had on stage at one time and be aware of our max capacity in the venue. We decided that two of our team would take one act each performing as the "player."
Masking
To achieve the set we used two 4x8 legs tied directly on to the LX bars as this meant no need for hanging bars as we only had one day to "fit-Up"
Weekly Break Down
To help show each member of the team the tasks to be completed and when a document was produced by the Head Of Stage detailing all the activities and would be carrying them out. This would also help with tracking our progress over the fit up to see how we were working with the available time.

Pre Show Checks
With all 4 team members having different tasks during the pre show time everyone had a different list with all moving aspects of the show needing checked fully. Meaning all revolve cues would be run daily before each show to test it as it would be run but also for the operator to get the feel of the control. We also needed to check all flying and automation pieces along with the sliding back wall panel and the various parts to that.
Flys & Automation
Head of Flys & Automation Tom Sedgwick
The show had 1 flown aspect to it, with no counterweight bars to use. The only flown element during the show is a Nerf Gun.

Stage Management
The team
Stage Manager: Thomas O'Hear
Production Manager: Lauren Murison ]
The work of the department was based around this RCS’s production (mainly for the sourcing of props and creating risk assessments) and a DVD recording of a different production (blocking, cueing, entrances and exits plots, setting- and running lists). More detail will be given on the RCS production, but example of documents created from the DVD can be found below.
Props
Most of the props could be sourced from RCS's own props store or with the help of NTS and Scottish Opera. Church items such as thuribels were previously borrowed for Glory on Earth, so could hopefully be used again. A lot of the church props would makes by the props department anyway. A lot of time was spent trying to think of different ways to make and source things instead of just jumping on the first link and buying it. An example for thinking outside the box, is How To Make A Fake Brick. Instead of buying a brick or a fake brick, the ASM thought about ways to make one that could be thrown safely while still being safe and made a mock-up of their idea with what they had laying around the house.
Risk Assessments
This was a fairly low-risk production with the main risk being the revolve. Other risk assessments were written for food an liquid, glassware and naked flame.

The Plan-
For this show the biggest problem faced was getting equal coverage across space in the AGOS. We flew two speakers 2m of the centre stage either side on the LX bars
Comms
The AGOS has its own comms box which Scotty and Tom Sedgwick patched and tested during fit up, 4 headsets and 1 spare
