Props for the Musical


There are a few cast members who will be using props in the musical. Our Mesopotamian farmers will all have a small prop. Last week we let the student's pick what they would like to bring to pantomime in the background during their song. They chose small items like: a basket, a washboard, a piece of cloth to pretend to wash, a stick to pretend to beat a rug, a small shovel (not bright colors), a leather pouch that holds seeds (not really, but they will be reaching in to grab invisible seeds pretending to plant them).

We also have some cast members in charge of bringing items like a wheel, money holder, a crook, sandwich, a stone with hieroglyphics, etc. We will try to communicate these specific needs to the parents of the characters using them.

We would like to have the props checked off along with the costumes by January 15th.
