First he called me a b***h because I don't like Bob Marly (you don't see me blasting Russian music in his ears for 6 hours!) and then he was running around with the squirt guns I told him NOT TO TOUCH like 18 times. I hated him....

And therein is the brutal side of theater.
I personally am not afraid to scream at a rabble of noisy actors to get them to STFU. >> Nor am I afraid to bang a prop gavel.

Don't forget about Shea I swear she scared me half to death I must've gotten that "stay out of the middle of the hallway" lecture ten times. I always had the worst timing

Sakaki-chan11 Little_Cricket i think you both would adore our prop mistress...nickname of Flog...not afraid to hit any guy anywhere. ^.^ keeps 'em in line EXCELLENTTTTTTT!!!! She sounds so cool!! heart heart NOOO!! She tomahawked a half emty bottle into my..UM.. Area, just because I said that she's never done it. crying I cried for a bit.....But she's a great props mistress. There are no dedicated actors that I've met that I did not like. They know the rule: you respect us we'll respect you. Minor actors though... kinda annoying when one of them runs into you while you try to lift a big platform... Not to mention the good luck that nearly broke my wrist... wait, that was a band kid.

I was a stage manager of a production and one actor, I guess, didn't take his medication or something, but he yelled at me that I couldn't tell him what to do and he actually taunted me to fire him, which I know in other circumstances, I'd be able to do. I told the director about after the show and he said he heard the arguing and thought it was a TV on.

my worst actor experience, actors wearing hoop skirts who won't move out of the way to let the run crew(me and another kid) get a desk onstage so we could start their scene. we broke a couple of candles with that one(and almost a couple of heads)

We have to share our practice space with the band so we aren't allowed to move their music stands and chairs until about three practices before the show night. The actors know this. One boy though, kept telling me to move all the stuff. He also kept complaining of imaginary dust on the stage and kept complaining of various things while I was trying to fix the stage lights. Seeing as I was the only person working tech this year, I wanted to murder him for making my already difficult job harder...
Then there is the fact of the actors playing with the light board and coming into the the sound room where they aren't supposed to be.....

I love actors and I don't mind them being there... unruly ushers on the other hand... The truth, not all ushers just Rickli. What's fun is laying boobie traps for him hin dark halls... heh heh heh... ninja

I was a techie for Alice in Wonderland...
>_<
Our Caterpillar was terrible. He was supposed to blow bubbles with bubble mixture, right?
He spilled it all over the stage, and then at blackout he ORDERED us to clean it up, even though he was supposed to do it himself...
Furthermore, he messed with the props and we had to hunt for them moments before the scenes. D=
Everyone else was very nice.
