 Displayed on this page is my routine in show week of Billy Elliot. I would perform this
routine before and during the show. When I wasn’t preparing props, handing out
props and set changes on Stage Right I would be doing set changes on Stage Left.
 Time: 13th - 18th February (day show) = 10:50am – 12:30pm
Tuesday 14th February (day show) = 10:50am – 12:30pm
Saturday 18th February (day show) = 3:30pm – 5:30
Tuesday 14th until Saturday 18th (evening performances) = 8:30 – 10:45
Health and Safety Point: This could course:
Props by cupboard Tripping over hazard
Coms Tripping over wire
Putting wardrobe back in cupboard Could run over feet causing an injury
Panellist table Tripping over cloth
Chairs and bench Dropping them on yourself or other
people’s feet causing an injury.
 Who else was involved: Elisha for props and set change ques.
Emily Pugh and Emily Howard for panellist table
Emily Pugh for pushing on Mrs Wilkinson’s door
 Problems I came across:
 After Merry Christmas Maggie Thatcher people would put all the
props on the panellist table- I then resolved this by after setting

the tutu I would put all the props from Merry Christmas Maggie
Thatcher on to the dresser to put away at the end of the show so
the panellist table was clear with the clipboards on for that
scene.
 When setting the tutu in the middle of Merry Christmas Maggie
Thatcher for the scene straight after that it would tend to get
kicked off the stage- when I realised this was happening I would
set it a bit later during Dads song where the people would move
from the area I was setting it.
 In dream ballet sometimes there would be chairs left on which
we resolved by goin
