Stage Management: Plays & Musicals / SCENERY: Making a Boulder
« on: Jun 08, 2007, 12:00 pm »
Im doing a production on "Wizard of Oz" this summer and the director informed me that he would like me to make a boulder for the Wicked Witch to stand on- and it has to make her taller than everybody else on stage. And, since it will only be used in the one scene and the show has a very, very small tech crew, it has to be very mobile (wheels preferred). Any ideas??? ???

I'm debating between two schools to further my education in stage management. I'm stuck between DePaul University in Chicago and Illinois State University in somewhere in Illinois. I'm hoping to go into theatre education after a while.

Any suggestions? :)

im a senior in hs and was looking into that too, but i decided on Columbia College Chicago instead.

i notice when i'm in school and doing a play that the closer i get to tech week, the more of a shift you can see in my priorities. this has a pretty big impact on my grades.

but hey, the show must go on! right?

im totally the same way. i was sm for my school's musical this year, "The Pajama Game," and it was crazy! Recovering from knee surgery, working (cut down to 1 day a week), having set builds all day saturday and sunday, school during the day, and then rehearsal late every night. my grades slipped from all a's 1 be to all b's (1 79.5 that got bumped) and a c (a 69 that got bumped). During a show, hw and grades arent important. i think i've skipped half of the week for techweeks, no classes just rehearsal!

I've only called from the soundbooth, i think i would go crazy backstage with a monitor!
