Annie JR- HELP!!

If any of your students are in Girl Scouts, the brownie uniforms with the jumpers are really cute as orphan outfits, you can just have the kids wear them inside out for a more ragamuffin look, with dirty looking white t-shirts underneath.

Your school situation and budget constraints ring very familiar to my situation when I piloted the original show in 1995 Mike! Title one school etc.! At that time, I used a 4x6 double hinged flat,(sheet covered and painted) for orphanage suggestion, simple period desk and radio as well as student drawn FDR painting on SR for Ms. Hannigans office. The servants brought in rug, furniture etc. in through the the house for Warbucks mansion. NYC was done with a "star drop"...twinkle lights inserted into a backdrop with a street lamp in front. Today we have the luxury of light insulation to paint and move etc. The true essence is the charming and touching story...don't apologize for lack of scenery, it makes us MORE creative, many times tells the story better and showcases the kids to a new level. Hope you will share pics!

THANKS EVERYONE for the great advice. it is much appreciated!

MTI does have production slides available for this title. Some groups have used the production slides as projected scenery from behind a scrim and others have project the slides onto flats so that they can trace the scenery and then paint it.
