The production

At school we are currently putting on the production "Annie". Are school is a large school that tries to puts a production on every year at Christmas. Alot of students want to get involved from all years.

We have all been giving rolls that happen backstage. These jobs are jobs adults would normaly been given . We didnt know who we were working as Mr Coulson and Mrs Kent chose who to go with and what rolls to be given.

I got put with Sian, and we are now Props managers. Are rolls are to design, create and buy props for the production. Sian and I will use the techonolgy department and they are letting us use the machines.

As some props we can buy we've been given a budget of £50.
As a group we all have to attend meetings with Mrs kent in the music room each morning on Wednesdays. We will talk about what we plan to do and are achievements and ideas she suggests.
When i first got given the roll, i thought it would be easy just making things, But there is alot more to it . Also in the Job we have to make sure each prop is on the right side of the stage and it gets put on stage at the exact time.

Plan of what i need to do :
-I need to find out what props are needed for the production
-I need to find out when they will appear on stage
-I need to find out what size the props will be
-I need to work out were i can buy props from
-I need to know what to make props from
-I need to find out were i can borrow props from
-I need to make sure all props will be safe
-I need to work with the stage manager to work out the props needed and if she feels they are suitable
-I need to work out were all the props will be so they are on the right side of the stage
