Arches are up!

almost there...

So we made it.

--breathe--


The show opened with a finished set. It was down to the wire. The shop really kicked into high gear in the last week and everything came together. I'll post photos if we get a chance to do another photo call.

I don't have any photos yet. In fact, I may not ever get a chance to document the show as seen by audiences. Obviously the photo above is not of the finished set... it is missing molding on the transom, feet on the pillars and other various details... more to come?

Perhaps.

Where are the walls?

Set going up

This photo was created over the weekend... the set has definitely progressed since then. Tech starts Friday! I don't think that we will be entirely ready, but we will be actor safe.

I often start to dislike my designs towards the end of the process. I don't know why. I wish it wasn't that way. But it's true. For some reason that hasn't happened with this show yet.

There is still time.

Floor coming together

Floor coming together

The floor for SSC's Sleeping Beauty. Kate, the paint charge, is doing a fantastic job. Everything is falling into place fairly quickly. And for that I am thankful, as we go into tech next week. Ack...

The floor should be finished up tonight (?) and then the carpenters will do a mad dash to get the set and other architectural elements in place. So the next couple updates should show a dramatic change.
