Alright, I came across a list of things not to say in the theatre while I was online last night, and I thought I'd post a few of the things. Add if you want!

~I think there's time for a third dress rehearsal!
~This costume is so comfortable! I love it!
~Can we do that scene change again?
~(I can't even type this) The Scottish Play.
~All the equipment is working perfectly.
~Take your time with the scene change.
~No thanks, I don't drink.
~The headsets are working *perfectly*
~There's a safety cable and a wingnut leftover. Does anyone see a problem with that?
~I'll tell you, but you have to promise not to panic...
~Oh, no. I don't need anymore crew members.
~Don't worry, that's my job.
~I think we're ready to open.

Come on! Add your own.

~First actor to get on stage gets 2 bucks!

One of the teckies shouted that into the intercom that leads to the dressing room right before dress rehersal. 3/4 of the cast, half naked, came running on stage. He never gave them the money anyways. Good thing that was a student production. I would feel sorry for my directors eyes.

No Warped pieces of wood!
I know how to use a staple gun!
Spirt gum holds and holds!
Those curtains have never been touched!
I wont cry the last night!

I wanted to come up with one where the director gets hit with a flip flop or bangs her head against a piano when a broadway actor is in the room but I couldnt come up with anything.

~whistle on stage~

Ok technicaly its not saying something but still. It comes from the fact that the set people were ex-sailors thats why they were able to walk up so high and not be scared. They used to communicate to each other with the whistles they used at sea. So if you whistled on stage they might think it was a signal for them to drop the scenery and you would get squished.

The drinking one is with every single techie that I know, so that's the only reason it's on there.

I must agree with the drinking one. Im one of the few actors in my school who doesnt.

~We dont need to run through that scene!

Alas, I must say only the director can say that and I have never heard one say that.

"No, we won't be here until ten o'clock." (For the record, they lock the building at 9:45. Everybody out!)
"I know exactly where that is."
