Maddie's Tiki







Maddie had to paint most of the Tiki before she made the hands because of the skull staff. She didn't want to have to paint underneath it. It was an interesting process although she seemed to have it all thought out whenever I asked her about it.

By the way the Tiki is wearing rib bones that I boiled down after a meal we had downtown using a gift certificate that Puck had gotten from the cast of the King and I Weird huh?

The skull I got for half price at Goodwill after Halloween.

The finishing touches. Maddie is working. She finished it two days before she had to go back to college.. It is pretty awesome

Here is the Tiki all finished and waiting in the scene shop for it's debut. We think the library will give it a home after the play which is a good thing although we will probably have to glue the skull staff in place. they also want us to do some kind of write up about it

The wonderful trunk Puck built for the pirates






Puck built this wonderful trunk to use in the play. We needed someplace to hide a small piece of booty. It is a blingy piece of costume jewelry that I jazzed up with additional rhinestone pieces. Usually when we do a show he likes to have the cast sign the back of a flat for a memory, but this show only has sand dunes so he left the inside bottom of the chest raw wood so the cast and crew could sign it

The King and I 2007







Puck only had a 400 dollar budget for this show after they had overextended themselves on the last show and the cost of performance rights and such were paid. He did a remarkable job with what he had. Once the stage was populated with all the actors it really was lovely, plus an outstanding light plot

The peacock chair was one that we rescued from the curb and they sprayed it gold. Nothing like a little gold paint to jazz up wicker
