Stories: In one of the scenes a  live goldfish swiming in a gold fish bowl was required.  In the next black out scene change it was replaced with a fake goldfish in a bowl of water. The action scene required the bowl to be shot at with a loud 'bang' and fly accross the stage with water and goldfish splashed all across the stage. We knew it worked well when the audience screamed with shock and horror!  Jane Craven made the copy of a life size goldfish out of an orange coloured teeshirt in the shape of a bug-eyed goldfish with long fins.
