On Being The Stingiest Set Designer/TD Ever
Components of Midsummer set so far that have been obtained free of charge:
- 19 2''x4''x8' planks of wood, East Campus courtyard, left over from building rollercoaster
- 1 4' tall, 10'' diameter cardboard-form tube, found lying on Newbury St.
- lots of foam, left over from remains of last show
- stone-texture paint - made of leftover basecoat, pvc glue, sand from the EC volleyball court and wood shavings from the hobby shop floor
- one jungle - made of old scrim being thrown out by the theatre department, old chintzy tablecloths, paint, and a spare hangman's rope from the props warehouse
- realistic roman statues - two plaster cast faces me and the LD made in costume class our first term
Half-built already, ladies and gentlemen, and we still haven't broken $100. Also I think we may be the first set team in the history of MIT theatre universe to actually start EARLY. *is proud*
