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.

I suspect that you will find that a genuine gas fire cannot be lit on stage. I was going to suggest something similar to what Taurean suggests. Tha alternative would be to create something using low voltage lights and gel. Is that all there is? Well if that's all there is my friend, then let's keep dancing. www.tonymoore.id.au www.moorebooks.net.au
