When the theatre calls and says the show must go on, they mean, literally, the show must go on. So when a fire at Holborn Station caused power cuts, unstable electricity and chaos across London, the Theatre Royal called on us to provide emergency power in just one day. Naturally, it happened during one of the busiest periods on the theatre calendar so cancelling shows wasn’t an option. With such tight deadlines we had to think fast and act fast to get a stable power supply to the audience before the curtain went up.
