Working in theatre has its ups and downs. Long nights of rehearsals, load in and strikes for days, and there are some days that you never see the sun, but it is one of the most rewarding jobs out there, especially for anyone who loves theatre. Whether you're an actor that lives for the applause or a techie that lives for creation and ideas, theatre is something we can all call home because it's our calling. It brings along many lovely things and one of those things are funny memes about inside jokes throughout the theatre world.
Here are 13 backstage badger memes (with some thespian peacock memes thrown in) that any theatre lover knows oh too well:
1. A stage crew’s worst nightmare.
2. The most common rule backstage.
3. The terminology is, “You break it, you buy it and I buy your soul.” Props. Every actors’ worst nightmare.
4. A whole production’s worst nightmare.
5. Gaff tape, a gift sent by the Gods. You can use it for everything and I mean everything.
6. Pre show best wishes are kind with bad intentions.
7. #techandproductionweekprobs.
8. Cringe worthy for every techie.
9. PSD- Post Show Depression.
10. We’ve all been there.
11. Cleaning paint brushes and rollers take forever. That’s why we try to not use as many paint supplies.
12. Theatre is life.
13. I can’t. I have rehearsal or a performance or yeah...
