Don't turn them on until the glasses have been handed out. As the intro for the music begins, have several people available to hand out the glasses. Invite viewers to dawn their new pair of specs. There are several ways to make wintertime happen indoors. Snow machines have been designed to create a realistic effect with virtually no clean-up, and no more slipping performers on soap flakes and shredded plastic.
Snow machines use a fluid that makes a type of soap suds bubble that slowly wafts through the air.
Because it is a liquid base, lighting can really give an added punch to this type snow when used in a production. You may want to add to the winter action by blowing a fan gently out across your viewing audience when the snow starts, to give them that blustery cold day feeling. Snow machines are really fun to have running while the audience is being seated. You can place the snow machine on the balcony, and let the snow fall on the new comers as they enter your winter wonderland. We suggest you have music playing to help deter from the hum of the snow machine.
