With a global pandemic comes some inevitable changes.
The arts and entertainment sector has been one of the first to be hit and will be one of the most heavily affected.
We will be doing everything we can to look after our extended family and clients to make sure we all come out of this on the other side safe and in a position to pick up where we left off.
This is an unprecedented time for us all so while we hibernate remember the great events you have been to and look for ways to support the artists and venues as soon as it safe to do so.
See you on the other side!
Meanwhile here is an interesting ritual from the theatrical sector which we feel is fitting at these times.
A ghost light is an electric light that is left energized on the stage of a theater when the theater is unoccupied and would otherwise be completely dark. It typically consists of an exposed incandescent bulb, CFL lamp, or LED lamp mounted in a wire cage on a portable light stand.[1] It is usually placed near center stage.
The superstitious have various justifications for the ghost light in relation to the supernatural. A popular theatrical superstition holds that every theater has a ghost, and some theaters have traditions to appease ghosts that reach far back into their history. For example, the Palace Theatre, London keeps two seats in their balcony permanently bolted open to provide seating for the theater ghosts
