Northrup actor Jamey Schrick was kind enough to pass along some wonderful anecdotes that I’ve sprinkled around the Cast and Effects pages.
Jamey also shared:
The show crashed a couple times when I was doing it, right when I’m supposed to ask Rimshot for a drumroll. I could tell when the show was about to wipe out because Rimshot would just go dark and the track would stop. Oh man that sucked, it was like – “Hey everyone, the show is cancelled…no really, for real this time.” And they’d sit there laughing and staring at me, then finally realize that I wasn’t kidding and slowly file out, disappointed.
There’s a video on YouTube of one of the Northrups I worked with having to deal with the stocks getting stuck – I feel so bad for him, but he handled it like a champ.
Thank you so much for bearing with me as I reminisce about one of my all-time favorite gigs. I wish I could do it again.
Thanks again, Jamey!
