It's a Landless Summer...

So, I totally threw out my back on Sunday. Which really puts a damper on my general artistic well being...so this is as good a time as any to let you know about some of the shows I am working on this summer for Landless Theatre Company...

First Up is part of the NYC FRINGE FESTIVAL. It was part of this winter's mashup fest...its a mashup of Glee and Scream...Because its a fringe show the set will simply consist of a backdrop (which I ordered from Rosebrand today...why Rosebrand you ask? Well, one of the joys of NYC Fringe is that everything has to have a NYC fireproofing certificate...one of the only places that sews drops and has the NYC Cert is Rosebrand...sheesh!) So, I prepared some backdrop ideas for the director:
As you can see, I didn't notice at the time that the show was called "Gleeam" and not "Gleem"....anyway, here is the directors final decision:

I should start working on this drop later on this month...so clear your schedule to go to NYC in early August!

The other two Landless offerings this summer are Captain Freedom (which I have minimal involvement in) and Rock Bottom (which I will be recycling/repurposing most of the B-team set for) Here is the info for both shows:
