Putting a Face on Theatre
Hello all. I'm doing a production of Agnes of God. We need a way to deliver a fair amount of blood to her hands in relatively clear view of the audience. Packets of blood affixed to tubes somehow in her sleeves? Anyone conquered this problem?

At SILV this summer they solved at a similar problem by using an IV bag strapped to someone's arms, so, pretty much the same theory of blood packets and tubes in the sleeves. They held a kink in the tubes by keeping their arms bent until they needed it to flow.

Thanks. That's about the only solution I've come up with so far. I'm glad to hear of someone else doing it successfully. Thanks greatly for responding!!

When they did this production at Milikin Univ. The had a simple gravity flow tube thing. Agnes clandestinely removed some stoppers, lower her hands and the blood came out.
