The Set of Absent Friends
This is the best set i have ever built and even more complex than the
Caravan set ("Caravan" is UK and AUS for "Trailer")
The French doors were donated by a local joinery and the wall sections
(In the theatre called "Flats") were mostly new for this show, I
calculated that their predecessors had at least sixty coats of paint!
I am quite pleased with the railings, they were made from donated scrap
pine and wall framing studs.
I don't usually post pics including the actors, but to me, they are
integral to the set and should be there. Most of the furniture was
bought on eBay and the prints were lent by a photographic company.
Nither the French doors nor the prints have glass so that thir
reflections won't intefere with the lights and sight lines. Audiences
should not see the reflections of the backstage crew and setup.
This group includes a pic of Mrs Mekon, in the blue on the phone. She
is rather too good at playing less than perfect people, I wonder where
she gets it from?
