BOEING-BOEING Blog: May 16
The set is coming together, with something new every day. We got doors yesterday and doorknobs today.
Farcical door sequences are always so much fun to watch and so much fun to be in (eventually), but they require a lot of work and repetition. So we spent some time doing those tonight - I love working on that stuff.
We also got a metal "railing" behind the couch that is new to all of us - there wasn't room for any such luxury in the previous incarnation. So we're going to enjoy exploring the possibilities it offers us. I hope nobody trips on it, gets caught in it, or manages to impale themselves on it. Not that there's anything inherently dangerous about the railing - but there is something inherently dangerous about schm-acting so hard that you become unaware of everything around you: I dread "coming to" after a particularly unfocused bit of panic and finding myself hanging from the railng by a piece of my costume. So, I'll try to be careful. :)
It is a challenge putting familiar material in a different space - but it's one that's fun to attack!
