At the
theatre that I have worked at this summer we have something called a drop zone. It is a wonderful idea. By all of our hardware and supplies it is a shelf and we can put anything up there and one person the next morning will put it all away. We use buckets to take screws or hinges or what have you to where we are working and then when we are done with it we just stick the bucket actually it is a plastic ready to measure mixing container, in the drop zone. It is simple and takes less time that putting things away when we are done with them and as many of you if not all of you know people never want to put things away.
