Dear Alex, you looked exceedingly dapper in your waistcoat at the Hilltop premiere, so in case you were worrying about that, you can stop it now. I have one question, and perhaps it will be hard or even impossible to answer it without spoilers, but since you claimed at the q&a that the best way of making you do something is suggesting it will be hard or even impossible, here goes: In which scene did you want to put that pyro effect you were begging everyone to be allowed to use? (I’m going out on a limb and guessing it wasn’t your monologue. Which was amazing, btw (not putting in more descriptive adjectives so as to not spoil anything).)
Oh I wanted so much unescessary pyro but the show you’ve seen has been written around it’s absence.
I’d have loved to do some bullshit with a real fireplace that gets out of hand but twas not meant to be.
when you do stuff like the hilltop (which i am unfortunately not able to see, why are you guys british?), do you feel more stressed about it or are you more enjoying it? or both?
Honestly? Probably Stressed? Lots of points of failure in live theatre and we need to change or suspend various company processes to give us time to do it. It is also fun but there’s a lot of responsibility on me and other crew to juggle various hats.
Hi sir, once the recording for The Hilltop is released and Protocol is finished, when do you think the best time to listen to The Hilltop will be during a full relisten of the series? Like do you think it'll still be best heard right after episode 50 or do you think that during a relisten it'd fit better in a different spot among the list of episodes?
Originally Hilltop was intended to fall after episode 60. I’d advise avoiding seeing it before episode 50 of Protocol. It won’t ruin the show or anything but you’ll be getting answers earlier than in series if you do.
Hi! I just ask something related to The Hilltop; once it's been shown, when will the recorded version be on youtube/Patreon for those who weren't able to attend it?
Hope it goes well with the development and looking forward for OAIR team to come back
Got this question a lot.
This is definitely an RQ question but I’ll answer it here just to stop repeat asks. Yes we have arranged for a third party video team to record a performance. I believe it will be made available to backers/patrons as standard and maybe available for one off purchase to non backers/patrons but I am v much Not in charge of that due to various rules/agreements. We should also be doing more live showings after these first looks but I would guess there will be a big delay due to Logistic stuff. Don’t hold your breath for a US showing though. Current political situation over there makes that untenable I’m afraid.
