Tech last night. All very exciting. If a bit shambolic but you expect that from a tech, right? We got to experience the pyrotechnics which was thrilling. And I'm childishly un-cavalierly glad that performance night wasn't the first time I had to flee from their firey charms.

The most delightful thing was not being director and barking yourself hoarse at the bumbling pack of fools shambling about the stage who are never quite as quick on the uptake as you would wish. Poor Brian.
