Overview
Stage Management
TSD
From a TSD perspective Gloria wasn't a big show, it involved 3 Flying lighting practical's. 2 office lights and a pendant light in the centre of the stage for the cafe scene (act 2 scene 1). the office lights would be in for Act 1 and Act 2 scene 2 which were 2 scenes set within 2 separate offices. the Office lights were lights we already had in stock in the LX store, these already had right angled plates attached to the top of them with slots cut into them. This made them very easy to rig. We used a 3/4T shackle with a paracord line, bow-lined to the shackle, up to the pulley then off to the middle catwalk to a cleat that was made out of a half doughty clamp, 2 small half cleats facing away from each other to make a cleat. with the small hole in the middle of one of the cleats was perfect to put a stopper knot in the line for the in dead's. this allowed a smooth run when it had to live run in. documents attached are ground plans of the set for each scene as well as a cross bar rigging plan for the practical lights. Gloria - Act 2 S2
because the office lights are positioned stage left to stage right this meant I needed 2 cross bars per light and with a stock of only 19 bars all departments had to work around each other to ensure we didn't over run our amount of bars.
