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.

Gawd everytime I Do a post, it ends up as a 'WP' (Wally Post)?  Even though I'm log'd in.  I'll try again?

It worked this time  - So it's me - wot a yoyo!    

In fact Gas lighting in theatres way back when, was the case of most fires backstage, which brought about the 'iron' safety curtain, that I believe may be still Manditory in Pohmy Iheatres these days & I remeber the 'woosh of the hydrolics when it was brought in.
