31st January, 2009 - 10 Things I Love About the Theatre #8

The eighth thing I love about the theatre is the feeling of family. My significant other and I have had our own little theatre company for about ten years now, and the core of the company has been identical – the two of us producing, my great friend Little One stage managing, my mate Creaky Knees building and designing the set, The Bison crewing manfully and Not Drew running lights and sound. Sure, there have been shows and gigs where some of the team are not involved for one reason or another, but we are a proper team. We are the backroom boys. We are the engine room.

We are a little family who run a circus. We live in a caravan that tours from town to town and knows how to raise the marquee, set out the ring and put the sawdust down.
