Seussical

Operation "Make-High-Schoolers-Build-Seussical" has now commenced. It promises to be a ton of work. Hopefully the highschoolers of Lakeville South leap to the challenge, and while leaping, somehow build this set.

To the right is a squished, sideways, preliminary sketch of what we are shooting for. I just spent a long time trying to rotate that picture. Computers sure save me loads of time.

The last set I designed and built for them was for their one act competition, and that was a paper-mache mess that turned into quite a beautiful, disassembleable tree. There is still a film of glue covering the whole scene shop reminding us of past wars fought in the name of art. There promises to be Florescent paint in the underwater bellet, Secret hatches, Slide, Firemen pole, maybe spandex. What more could an audience ask for?

In other news, I've been thinking about starting a new blog or so at a new address. Maybe one more focused on a particular theme. Take the survey on the right. Let me know what you might be interested in hearing more about.

  2. Kyle and Rebekah: I am an Internet librarian so I do a lot of online searches and look what I found. I found your blog! Great to see you in 263. Do you want info on the appraisal I had done recently for 263? Love the photos. My mother would have been happy to see them. She was of Czech descent and loved that w 7th neighborhood.
