Re: Fairy Wand - which hand?
Literally the first thing I learnt on the first day of rehearsals on my first pro panto job was that a fairy should had the wand from the bottom, so that it looks like an extension of their hand. If a fairy holds it in the middle it just looks like a stick. Sadly, I was so entranced by this advice (which I still adhere too) that I failed to remember a hand preference. I feel like the downstage hand (usually right) allows the fairy more scope for movement and opens them up.
