Dump Run!

Saturday, October 4 was the closing of Incorruptible. Strike was held that night after the show - all the walls were taken down, costumes and props put away and the dressing room cleaned. On Sunday, a work call was held to finish cleaning up and to organize the scene shop.

Lorrie Tripp supervises while Tom Majarov and Bette Cassatt load trash onto the cart. Mark Barnhart puts away tools.



Mark goes through flats in the scene shop. It was like a time capsule, some pieces in the shop were from shows MET did 10 years ago! We got rid many things and by the end of the day we could see the floor!


Tom and John Kearns load items for the dump into the truck, generously loaned to us by Lorrie's husband, Hank, who owns Gardner's General Contractor .


While going through the shop, Mark found this written on the back of one of the flats. He had written it when he played Picasso in "Picasso at the Lapine Agile", in October 1999! Apparently there were some issues with his pants zipper : )

A lot was accomplished over the weekend, and all our set-builders are happy to have more working space in the shop.
