"The Producers" theatre district drop is done!

I'll get some better pics of this later when the lights are all in place, but here's a sneak peek.



An unbelievable crew of painters showed up Saturday afternoon and banged out this backdrop with me and Chloe. EVERYONE worked hard and fast! After a few touch ups on Sunday, this backdrop hopped back on the pipe and was hoisted back into place.

It was a good day, and I could not have done it without the whole crew. Amazing.

Theatre Backdrops for "THE PRODUCERS"

Well... it's theatre season, and that means once again the local community college needs some backdrops for their next production. Painting begins this weekend and sketching begins tomorrow (sketching on a grand scale that is). The designs are done at this point. There's something vaguely Chuck Jones-esque about these. They are a little cartoony and I think that works for a show like Mel Brooks's "The Producers."

These designs are based VERY closely on the original Broadway production from the St. James.

There's a few more drops, but these are the main ones used throughout the show. This is gonna be a fun one. Stayed tuned for updates...
