Lesley, Peter Davis, Jim North and myself were standing stage right. The two members of cast had shut themselves in the box during a previous scene change and the stage was quite dark on our side. I think it was Peter who nudged me and as quietly as he could said something along the lines that Motel’s house was moving. Not just moving but slowly gliding down stage towards the orchestra pit with two people inside.

This contraption did have wheels to move it around but also had brakes to secure it. The rake of the stage was so great that the brakes couldn’t hold the combined weight of the scenery and the cast.
