The Environmental Health Directorate has produced a pdf document that covers the REGULATIONS covering theatre in Western Australia. This document is applicable to every public building in WA so it covers you! Do you meet the requirements ? The document can be purchased from the State law Publishers or downloaded for free from here http://www.population.health.wa.gov.au/environmental/resources/Public%20Buildings%20Guidelines%20Final.pdf If you are looking to have the capacity of your venue increased or want to know the requirements for house lights, work lights, exit lights, safety chains etc it is in this document. Enjoy Don

Well done Don, this should

Well done Don, this should put the Cats amongst the galahs! I doubt if any Pro or Ameatres here in this State, being a WA legislated Act, would actualy comply. Especialy concerning the application of 'Fire retardants on sets, drapes or fabrics. Also I think to having 'safety chains' or a [PAT]Test Log Book in play, would be next to non existant! Which would have to be a worry with Insurance Claims? As Insurance Companies are in the bussiness of hiring out umbrellas, but having the habit of wanting them back again, in case it starts to rain! Being a qualified ('A' Class) Electrical Fitter & Installer [mechanic], I think at one stage I was one of less than a hand full of Licenced Electrical Workers in the theatre/entertainment Industry in the whole State! If we use the average charge of about $20+/unit tested on an Industrial site, it could be a costly half yearly excercise for Proeatre at least, not counting Ameatres. Unless of course they have an friendly or employed in house competant/qualified techie/sparky.[Tagging requires the provision of a Licence Number to validate it]. Which would be few & far between?

TOI TOI TOI CHOOKAS

[May you always play to a full house] Hear the lights & see the sounds.
