Sets--General Concepts

From a directing standpoint what I need for the sets of the show are fairly simple.  Many scenes take place either on the street or in a yard.  The specific locations/interiors are only a few:  The Garter Inn, the Ford house, Dr. Caius' house and the giant oak tree.

A simple unit set would work best.  I would love to have something to represent both the Ford and Page houses as well as something else for the Garter.  I'm thinking three building fronts, so that we have three doors.

Production Meeting: 6/23



The Logo

 We settled on a show logo with the producers.  I like it.  It doesn't tell the story but is an intriguing image and I really like the palette.  It goes with this particular production well.  We also worked out many logistics on coordination of the two shows Mill Race Players is doing this summer.  A lot of that behind the scenes stuff is integral to the production, but affects the day to day operation little.

We have fleshed out the rest of the production staff.  I hate that we had a lready started rehearsals, but the timeline was compromised.  There are great people working on the technical end of things, and I have no fears that it's all going to be great.
