Process shots

I have some interesting photos to share of some of the building processes of our scenery. The first two shows of the summer, Last of the Red Hot Lovers and Pinkalicious, shared a set (with lots of different elements to distinguish two very different shows)

Early during load in of Lovers.

Later on during load in...what a difference a carpet can make!
 Pinkalicious, the first kids show of the season, had some fun projects for our shop to make. My staff carpenter, Meg, and our intern Chris built nestling ottomans that formed a circle.

covered with muslin and lots of glue.


the counterpart piece, painted and drying!
I built a table for Pinkalicious that rotated at the center to become a seat.

inside is a steel pipe and a series of supports allowing the table to actually be two halves.

used in the show as a table....

and as a doctor's chair!


the table was standable as well. (there are lots of safety rules about structures that can be stood on and danced on in the theater).
