week 1 - trial

[productions]

week one trial



[At 9 AM precisely, the old grandfather clock chimes once again, and the doors to the drawing room are opened. They will remain open until everyone has come inside, after which they will shut behind them. It is not possible to leave on your own, although perhaps if you have a specific purpose the hostess will allow you to go. The room is set up comfortably, with several tables by the fireplace set out to assist with the trial. The Hostess will also remain in a seat near the fireplace, next to the scales on the mantle. At lunch, the doors will open to bring in a large meal on an automatically rolling buffet, and at 3 PM, tea and finger sandwiches will be served. You'll be able to enjoy the trial in comfort, of course, but the information cards set out on tables will not allow you to forget your true purpose here.]

Notes on the Chair

[obsideo]

We tested the theory that the chair was propped against the door using piano wire. With two wires tied together, we were able to loop the wire around the chair and get it propped up against the handle and then pull it in place from under the door, but it took us a lot of tries. The wire has to get just in the right position, or the chair just falls over.

It would be pretty hard to do and it's not something that could be done quickly, but it's possible.
