On a much happier note, it's nice to feel like the move from performing to doing sound design for theater isn't just better for me mentally, but also making other people happy with my work. :)
Well, that was a pleasant surprise. The overhead mics were feedback central, but the body mics on the leads were smooth like butter right out of the gate. If I had 30 mics (and the inputs for them), I'd just throw them on the cast and say the heck with it, although the resulting radio cloud might be sufficient to cook the audience.

Wrestling with speaker placement to get a few wireless mics working for a musical in a fifty-seat cubic space. (I know, don't get me started on the necessity of mics in there...)
Having a sinking sensation I'm going to spend the weekend chasing feedback spikes...

Having wrapped off 'Ride the Cyclone', I'm now digging into sound setup for 'Cabaret' even though it doesn't start rehearsals until August, because I'm obsessive like that.
Now to figure out whether and how to mic up a nine-piece orchestra in a weirdly-shaped 300-seat space...
