We Should Definitely Have More Dancing is an autobiographical play featuring Clara Darcy as herself, recounting her own story as an actor who suddenly and unexpectedly develops a near-fatal brain tumour.
Equipment
Audio QLab programming featured a variety of ambient scores and sound effects, live microphone cues and diegetic sound transmitted via hidden on-stage bluetooth speaker.
Turnaround for this particular show involved laying three large rolls of grey vinyl dancefloor, flying a specially-designed curtain rail rig to hook on six large curtains, a huge amount of props, and two vocal microphone stands within 15 minutes. ... Oh, and also vacuuming after a confetti cannon!
