You Can't Take It With You
I am starting to work on the show You Can't Take It With You which is in the Spring, and in the set we have a window and I am trying to figure out what can the audience see though the window that is 1936 New York, any ideas?

A white picket fence and the side of the cracker-box next door.

Take yourself to the library, go to the art and photo books section and start looking. You can probably find books or photographs from NY based photographers from the '30s. You can alos google, but books are better. You might also ask your production's dramaturg. Figuring out what NY looked like in the '30s should be a challenge, it just sounds to me like you haven't done any research yet.Originally Posted by shakenblaken

Hang some curtains, put a ficus in front of the window, and maybe paint a sky on a flat and add some shingles for roofs. :-)
