Well not so much to install, but to advise on where we can hire / borrow a fake gas fire? Playlovers had a marvellous fireplace for their production of Hobson's Choice, but our play, whilst set in a similar region, is in more modern times...I know the house would probably be central heated, but we're old fashioned enough to want a fire, even if it's fuelled by gas rather than wood...all /any advice welcomed.

Fake gas fire....

If what you seek is psuedo-flame, then above the "piano cupboard" in PlayLovers Bar there lurks the "Fire" from "Beauty and The Beast" which we mounted at The Regal Theatre... a boxed dichroic halogen light unit with fan driven silks that when lit, resemble actual flame.

OR, if you are after a "practical" I have a circa 1970/80 freestanding gas fire that you are welcome to... "PLEASE!!!!!!" (Kath comment)..... no charge/non-returnable.

Give me a ring John,

Graeme.
