At the end of the show Dick Powell pulls down the safety curtain, you will note that it has 'ASBESTOS' written on it, which reminds me of my misspent childhood. I managed to get into the old Hippodrome Music Hall in Accy, and there was an enormous safety curtain there too, made of woven asbestos. Being kind of dumb then, I have always had a healthy disregard for Elf-n-Safety, we cut holes in it so that we could use a rope from the fly tower to swing through the safety curtain out over the orchestra pit.
Ahhh, happy days - wot fun! |
were the understage doors still working in your days in the hippodrome A-B? bet yeh got in through that little window entrance at the end of the back,which was at ground level.
