There's a cool collaboration happening here at Children's Theatre of Charlotte: we're co-designing and fabricating two children's bedrooms for a local episode of ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. We're set to "Move that bus!" very soon. My mother, a big Ty Pennington fan, thinks this is the most wonderful thing I've been involved with.
From the press release:
ABC’s Emmy award-winning television reality show “Extreme Makeover Home Edition” has selected Children’s Theatre of Charlotte to co-design and fabricate two children’s bedrooms in an upcoming build in the Charlotte area.
“Who knows children and their imaginations better than Children’s Theatre?” says Senior Producer Diane Korman. “The Theatre has a team of extraordinarily talented designers and craftspeople – a perfect match for the rooms we will create for these deserving children.”
The design work and fabrication will be completed at Children’s Theatre’s facilities at ImaginOn: The Joe & Joan Martin Center.
“We are very excited to be part of this worthwhile project and to lend the talents of our artists to create unforgettable spaces for these young people. This opportunity is being embraced by our entire team here at the Theatre, especially because it is happening during the holiday season,” says Linda Reynolds, Managing Director of Development, Marketing and Sales.
