Notes on community theatre. Beware of rocks in the living room. February 29, 2016. April 8, 2016. I have rocks in my house. Big ones. That might seem strange to most people, but not to show folks.

Wooden Ratchet Noisemaker: Video | Prop Agenda
http://www.props.eric-hart.com/how-to/wooden-ratchet-noisemaker-video
Wooden Ratchet Noisemaker: Video. May 19, 2015. Back in 2009, I made a wooden ratchet noisemaker for a show. The prop was cut. Then they wanted one for a show the next year, so I gave it to them in rehearsal; it was cut again. I published a nice Instructable showing how it was made. And that was that. I recently built a whole bunch more, so this time I shot a video of the process. Other posts on my site you may like. Video: One-piece silicone block mold.

http://www.props.eric-hart.com/how-to/making-a-giant-chandelier
Making a Giant Chandelier. September 22, 2014. At Triad Stage was reminiscent of an old vaudeville theatre. One of the focal points was a massive chandelier overhead. I knew we could never be able to afford to buy a five-foot diameter chandelier, and even if I could find one to rent or borrow, transporting it would be difficult. So I figured we would just spend the time making one. I put together a video showing the progression of the build. Other posts on my site you may like. Making a Life-Size Dragon.
