Techbox
This is the domain of the Techies and it contains the Amps, Sound Desk, Lighting Desk and other assorted stuff. Technically (ho ho) we shouldn’t store anything on the top of the tech box but it is quite a useful place so just try to be careful with it. You can walk on the top of the tech box but try to stand on the beams. The panic alarm is connected to the white boxes along the front of the tech box and will flash red if it' activated. If this happens run down to the box office to help them. These boxes flash green for normal phonecalls.
