Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow...
We opened
during the worst weather of the year. Fifteen
hardy souls braved the raging blizzard to come
and see us on that first night. Spring
Street Theatre closed down for the
weekend. We stayed open and played to full
houses for the next two nights, even having to
put in extra seating and turn people away!
Take that, Hull Truck! |

The
Audience Won't Notice One
of the Baron's gruesome props was a rubber
hand in a tall jar of green liquid. The hand
nestled serenely at the bottom of the jar
until the last night when, during one of Count
Dracula’s almost interminable interludes of
tortured self-examination, it rose slowly to
the top of the jar, frightening the cast and
cracking up the audience. Although after the performance some of them asked how
we'd managed the trick of getting the hand to rise on cue! |

Quote,
Unquote Being upstaged by the hand! Our
stalwart audiences who turned up with a blizzard
outside. My first bad girl part and lots of fun Sharon

wonderful characters getting together. And this was the one with the amazing
"hand in
bottle" trick that everyone thought was deliberate Ailsa
Spine tingling and side splitting. Glenn's
transformation into the werewolf made the similar scene in American Werewolf In
London look really shit Ray |
