I have been associated with our high school theatre for about 6 years. I am the TD and my problem is that we build very extensive sets but have no storage space. Does anyone have any ideas of how we might be able to get more use out of the pieces?
I've always wondered if a couple of schools could tandem up on the shows; especially if school #2, 3, etc. don't have an extensive shop facility. I would love to see my sets get more use than just our run. For example, we just concluded "Gypsy" this past fall and I have individual cut out letters for GYPSY that have about 150 light sockets wired and ready to go. We also made marquee lights for our proscenium that are on a 4 bulb chase. Lots of drilling and wiring, etc. but I will need to discard them as of August or September due to space constraints.
Any suggestions?
