Comments from Todd Hensley

Recollections:
– Sunrise reflecting of the IDS Building on those below-zero mornings.
– Trying to learn watercolor from Lance B!
– The Experimental Theatre – cold steel and stack chairs
– “Lamp warm-up!”
– Focussing sessions with lights at 30%
– Five-scene preset board in Proscenium
– Gino in charge: esp. on the Prosc. counterweight winch
– Two bats in the Prosc. flyloft – they came down during Act I Finale of The Mikado and did lovely figure-eights behind the scrim.
– “The Pit” – and making the real art down there with friends, between rehearsals.

I don't think I knew Todd, but I stage managed The Mikado and it was the greatest. How lucky I was to SM a show directed by Uncle Bob and call a show designed by Gino. And Oh God, those presets!!
