Thank you for the link will have a little look later.

Thanks for that, most interesting and totally as unglamourous as you would think it is.

Thanks for that. It's not very posh is it?

Typical "Showbiz" - All gold and glamour were people see it and peeling paintwork and pipes back stage. No point in spending a single penny on something that isn't seen by the paying public.

I did a tour of the Theatre Royal Drury Lane when Miss Saigon was on: The WOW of the show; The lights, the sound, the songs, the drama, that one off special night looks a hell of a lot different during the day under cold hard fluorescent lighting on a bare matt black painted stage. You are shocked at how can they turn this into a magical wonderland every night. And the back stage area and little passages are peeling black paint and dark and lead to small dressing rooms for the large cast to rush into for their 30 second costume change.

Typical showbiz!

I went backstage at the London Palladium a few years back and was totally shocked at the state of the dressing rooms and corridors.

Good video, but my god some terrible editing trying to be like Cribs, they really shouldn't have done that

Loved the flower boob plant or what ever he called it

The boob plant thing cracked me up!

btw does that site have all of ITV's dancing on ice extra stuff? ITVs player is rubbish.

Thanks for posting the link

That was interesting. Books and covers, etc. Makes me feel happier about the walls that still haven't been painted in my spare room!

Nothing is ever glamourous back stage, an interesting video but shatters the illusion for the public, probably best not shown.

Coleen was the star of that video.

Yay Coleen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You look as though you are in a happy mood as well sofajudge.

Reading the threads from last year and found this, so bumping it up for anyone that hasn't seen backstage
