That's what I don't get - wouldn't at least some crew be in there?
The tobacco factory as a venue is a bar with a theatre attached (fairly small; seats about 100), so the theatre bit isn't always open vs the bar which is generally always open. If there's no-one who's had the relevant training around where the fire exits are/lighting and sound (i.e. only bar staff) due to a mixup, then it's a fairly reasonable story.
Fair enough - thanks for the explanation.
No worries -- it's a bit of an odd venue. I saw Jeremy Hardy there a long time ago.
