A few years ago my older son Stephen (a drummer - even drummers have mothers) was playing in the pit for an amateur production of "Jesus Christ Superstar". Jesus made a grand entrance from the back of the hall carrying the obviously very heavy cross - through the hall - up the stairs to the stage - nearly dropped the cross on Stephen. He would have possibly been the first drummer to go in such a way.....?

Have fun Sorcha! I was in amateur theatre a thousand years ago - we had a great time.
