A retail opening on a busy Male street, with permission to use part of the road for three hours on a Friday afternoon.
The production was designed around the build time rather than the look: a lightweight stage, one truss, battery lighting and a compact sound system, all of which we can put up in seventy minutes and take down in forty. The neighbours were told in writing a week ahead, and we gave the two shops either side our production manager's number.
Nine hundred people came through the door in the first four hours. Nobody complained to the council, which for a street event in Male is as much a measure of success as the footfall.
