Family Matters – a Play 

 Once again I have been ask to design and paint a set for my friend Robert and his students at Howard Street Middle School.  This show is called Family Matters.  All he needed was a back drop that he wanted to look like the front of a huge family album or scrapbook and a giant book...… Continue reading Family Matters – a Play

Legally Blonde 

For the past few months I've been working as the Apprentice Director at Pentacle Theater.  An Apprentice Director at Pentacle Theater is a little more than an Assistant Director.... I gather.  Actually, I did what I was trained to do as an Assistant Director... whatever the director didn't want to do, assigned me to do, or I could do… Continue reading Legally Blonde

Ways Being a Theater Major Set Me Up For a Successful Life 

The Arts in our public schools are disappearing at an alarming rate.  The town next to us has cut the vocal program from their class schedules.  The schools in my town have moved to offering ½ of the music program they had a few years ago.  They don’t offer a theater program.  The only theater… Continue reading Ways Being a Theater Major Set Me Up For a Successful Life

Once Upon A Mattress – CHS 2013 

Once Upon a Mattress was an adventure!  I drew out a basic plan, got director approval and went to work! The first step was to make more flats.  I need something light enough to fly.  I wanted to fly a giant 20x20 foot wall.  This was going to by an adventure for sure!  We brought… Continue reading Once Upon A Mattress – CHS 2013

Seusical the Musical – Howard Street Middle School 2013 

Back in October my friend, Robert, ask me to design Suesical the Musical Jr. for his middle-school class.  The set needed to be easily moved... they practice in a gym and then perform on a stage.  They do not have time to "build" a set because the stage belongs to the high school.  Kids need to be… Continue reading Seusical the Musical – Howard Street Middle School 2013

Attend the Tale… 

I came home from Seminary a few months ago and quickly became a little confused.  John was still home.  He left a message on Facebook that I had the day off.  My response was, “I don’t think so.  I've got responsibilities.”  But I went with it. John had arranged for Kimber to hang out with the little… Continue reading Attend the Tale…

A Masterpiece of Law vs. Grace 

Oh, so long ago I fell in love with the incredible story penned by Victor Hugo's Les Miserables .  Such a literary powerhouse long before Alain Boubeil and Claude-Michel Schonberg wrote their musical based on the story in 1980. I fell in love all over again.  This time with haunting melodies and an exquisite score.    I loved it… Continue reading A Masterpiece of Law vs. Grace

Little Mermaid 

 This is the first scene... Eric's boat.  Most of this set is on the "fly".  This is the first time I've designed for the fly system. For under sea scenes the Sail flies up and the sea moves up too.  We also made "coral" that moves into place with the help of sea creatures.  We… Continue reading Little Mermaid

The Park play rehearsing in the gym at Howard Street Middle School. Performing in the Bush Park.  A new acquaintance designed and made the costumes.  She is amazing!
