So, over the past few weeks I have been busy, busy, which is why I haven't had time to post. I have been working on the set of the musical "Once on this Island" My 15 yr. old daughter was in this musical and I worked on the set with my husband. This is her 4th musical with this particular performing arts company. This is also the 4th show I have built the set for. It's a large project, but very gratifying to see it in the end.
This is the gate in the story. My husband and I cut carpet tubes in half, then wrapped them in burlap.
Here are some pics of the last show I did...Godspell
The hut
Two refidgerator boxes, tape, hula skirts, and a tropical umbrella from the party store. Oh, the door is a shredded old sheet.
I think the most time consuming where the palm trees. They were carpet tubes attached to plywood sheets. They were wrapped in burlap. The fronds (?) where made of wire coat hangers and a roll of plastic table cloth from the party store.
You can't see it very well, which is the idea, but there is a ladder behind the trees here for the girl to climb and sit on top at the end of the musical. She is supposed to be sitting in a tree. It worked well.
