Once Upon A Mattress

Once Upon A Mattress
   On Murrow's Main Stage Opening night of Once Upon A Mattress will be December 12th 2001. Mr. Robert Elman will direct the production, presented by Murrow's Circle of Friends. Both Mr. Scott C. Parker and Ms. Allison Galker will design the production. 
   The lighting will be designed by Mr. Parker and Ms. Galker will design the costumes. Scenic design of the massive ship will be a collaborative effort between the two designers. 

The front view of our set. The sketch is based on a set of photos that our associate designer, Sonia, had taken of a castle during last summer.
  We have three layers of towers. The first one will be actual round towers, each with a Curved Staircase. These will be fun to build.

Here we see the set with the front set of platforms open. This reveals two openings that we'll use for scenery entrances.
The Curved Flats page has some photos of the tower tops being built.
