Chasing the Who’s cue sequence.

Props Designer

Took an old ukulele and painted it different shades of blue and then outlined it to make it cartoony, fitting the other props and set.

I got a magic cane and glued a pink pom pom to the top.

“Fish-sticks” for McElliotts Pool in "Its Possible”.

We cut out fish designs from poster-board and then painted and drew on the fish, then gluing them onto sticks. We made about 30 for the ensemble.

For the Pillsbury Bush:

I got a plant bucket and wired 3 pool noodles inside it to create a cactus bush shape in the bucket. I then painted the bucket and pool noodles, using tiny wires to clip pom-poms (pills) to the plant.

Clover:

I used a chopstick as a base and wrapped pipe cleaners around it, then glued a pom pom onto the top of the stick.

I gathered a team and we made 25 mini clovers of two different shades of pink, we used pipe cleaner bases and they got spread across the stage for when the main clover gets lost in a field.
