Kabuki Design
After researching Kabuki designs on paperclip, we decided that The Seagull 2009 design suited us best because of length and the directors requirements. See the Kabuki Drop page for further information.
Catwalk Removal
During the final scene in the play, one of the main characters hangs herself. With extensive paperwork and pushing from the CPU department, estates gave us permission to remove one of the Chandler catwalk panels to allow a place for a body to appear. To compensate for this exposed gap, an infill was built to reduce the space.

Pyro
The Pyro used was a Microdet and was fired inside a Bomb tank situated in the USL corner of the Chandlier next to the fire exit. Pyro control itself was behind the back wall of the set about four metres away from the bomb tank. The wire ran from the pyro along the back and hard wired into control. To hide the flash of the Pyro the bomb tank was surrounded by a two sided box and covered with Black tat that could be removed to access the pyro.
There was cue light at control run from the point in the stage left wing and along the back wall with the COMMs cable and the bell wire for the pyro. Throughout Act 1 and 2 the pyro controller, COMMs headset and pack were not there and only put in during the interval along with the pyro.
The connection between the pyro and the wire was created by twisting the pyro wire around the bell wire the covering with LX tape. The bell wire was then hardwired into the controller.
