Never mind the on-stage dramas, there’s a whole world which exists backstage — the ‘Dark Side’ - that the audience never sees and probably wouldn’t believe. Having managed professional venues for more than 10 years, Karen will give you a fun (and interactive) insight into the world behind the glitz and the glamour of the stage and front of house. She'll show you how some of the effects are created and talk about the ways theatre creates the magic.
And of course, there has to be a ghost and an Elvis in every theatre.
