From now on, when someone suggests a show, my first question is going to be, "How complex is the set?" Arsenic and Old Lace is a great show, but the set is kinda nuts: two working doors, two sets of stairs, one working window big enough for actors to walk through, a cellar door that lets actors escape...and only one weekend to put it all together. It's a good thing we're in good hands. Our set designers know what they're doing...or at least, they're good at acting like it.
Here's some photos from the first day of set construction in the Rylander. Don't worry, it will all get done by opening night. It always does, somehow!
The star of the show...he was a bit of a diva, didn't help with the construction at all.
John Parks (far right), aka The Man With The Plan, supervises.
The staircase will be nice and sturdy for Teddy.
More tomorrow...there's still a lot of work to be done!!
