The show was Hello Dolly.
My clarinet was on its stand, in a pit 8' below the stage.
The clumsy waiter ran onto stage, and deliberately slipped and fell on the stage, as per character and script.
But his velocity was too much for the slipperiness of the stage, and he landed, horizontal. missing my clarinet by millimetres.
If he had landed ON it, he would have been impaled! Poor clarinet!
As it happened, he picked himself up got back on stage, took a bow to much applause, and continued as if nothing had happened.
