Produktbeschreibung

Clunk by Pete Minall

What do a heart attack, a forklift, and a caped crusader have in common? They all feature in this riotous romp through a life spent in the wings, lighting the stage, and behind and in front of the camera. This is a backstage pass to the unpredictable world of theatre, television, and rock 'n' roll, told with wit and a storyteller's charm.

I've spent most of my career either behind a camera or up a ladder with a shifter in one hand and mild panic in the other. This curious path has led me to work with some rather famous people - from sharing chats with iconic legends to dodging disasters in pantomime, each chapter is bursting with character and colour. You'll meet Led Zeppelin, Joan Collins, The Who, Spike Milligan, and Charlton Heston along the way. You'll survive Frome festivals, rogue producers, and the occasional goat.

I mention these names not to impress; frankly, I'm more impressed that I once fixed a broken dimmer rack with gaffer tape and hope. These people were just part of my job: colleagues, collaborators, and occasional sources of mayhem.

Whether you're a theatre buff, a music lover, or just someone who enjoys a good yarn, this book delivers laughs, gasps, and moments of unexpected poignancy. It's a celebration of the messy, magical, and utterly unpredictable world behind the curtain

So pull up a chair, pour a drink, and prepare to meet the best, the brilliant and she who can not be named!
