That would be tremendous fun! I've always loved to watch those scenarios played out in circus or pantomimes. Although I now live on the South coast, I was born in Wolverhampton and remain a Black Country man at heart (so no language problems
) Also I see we are both mature people who would be on the same wavelength. Unfortunately I don't know of a suitable venue; as you say it would need to be fairly spacious and we would need someone to operate cameras to get maximum enjoyment from such an investment of time and money. If a thing is worth doing its worth doing properly, not half-heartedly! An outline script and 'stage directions' would also be necessary; it should look chaotic but for full effect it mustn't actually be chaos or it wouldn't be funny and might actually risk injuries!
Sorry if I sound like a 'wet blanket' but, speaking from experience, I've always enjoyed sessions with a 'director' present much more than ones without. Anyway, I wish you good luck with the venture and hope you will keep us all informed of progress via the Forum.
