But I imagine backstage is tight and they probably don't want people messing with backstage stuff.
I know people who worked at Fear Factor during the AoV era and that was a HUGE issue- granted, AoV weren't Universal TMs- and I would imagine that most of the Bill and Ted crew remained similar year-after-year so it probably wasn't a big problem before.
Bourne is very technical, and also likely not something that would be shut-down for daytime operation for months to implement new show programming- and running Bourne in the AM and HHN-whatever in the PM seems like a war waiting to happen. Both options seem like a loss. Plus, given that the stage is more-or-less a ride system, I can't see anyone from the outside (like AoV or Nightmare Fuel) being allowed to use that stage. Using in-house talent would likely mean they'd need something written in-house, too, which to me sounds like a lot of work with more potential issues than potential solutions.
Unless the right idea is there, or whatever show is designed to be a permanent HHN fixture with minimal changes between years where it can be tweaked/worked on whenever, I think the cons outweigh the pros- even though I think the technology is all there for an awesome Universal Monsters stunt show.
