The Way Back Home North America Tour Technical Rider General: The company consists of two performers and one company stage manager. We will arrive in a medium sized van. Please make provision for parking. Load in including focus should take 4 hours. Our Company Stage Manager will operate both lighting and sound for the show, please make sure both lighting and sound positions are accessible to one person, if this cannot be done please inform us at the earliest opportunity. We understand some theatres are subject to union regulations, in which case our Company Stage Manager can call the show. Set: Our set consists of a main unit 8ft high and 12ft wide. This breaks down into various panels and sections. There are also two small free standing units and various props and costumes. We will require a clear playing space of at least 6m width x 4m depth and the stage must be swept prior to our arrival due to the nature of the performance. Please supply helium gas to fill five standard balloons per performance (small party canisters are available at most large supermarkets). Lighting: Lx plot supplied. We will require full use of the theatre s lighting facilities. It would be most helpful if you could pre-rig the lx rig prior to our arrival. If you cannot pre-rig please inform the Company Stage Manager well in advance as this may mean an extended get-in time. We will bring the colors and gobos listed on the plot. If you feel it is more convenient to use your own colour stock feel free to do so but please confirm any substitutions with the Company Stage Manager. Sound: We require one mini disk or cd player and mixing desk. Your standard FOH speaker rig will be sufficient, in addition we will require monitor speakers/fold back. Please also supply two wireless lapel microphones, headset preferred, otherwise clip-on will suffice. Personal Rider: Please provide refreshments for the company on arrival: tea/coffee, soft drinks and light snacks. Please also provide bottled water for during the performance.
