Goodbye, hut!

Today I said goodbye to our amazing hut from The Jungle Book, built with precision by the Pittman family. Because we have no storage for such amazing set pieces at Woodmont, we donated it to our new drama friends at Southside High who will be producing A Midsummer Night's Dream. So our favorite hut will have a new life down the road. Hey, look! That little bird is still perched on top. Ha!

Donated!! I thought we were just letting them borrow it! We spent hours glueing grass to that hut!
How in the world did they keep it in the truck standing up that way? That thing is really top heavy.

Yes, donated. Our options were to destroy it or let someone else use it, since we have limited storage backstage. By giving it to Southside, we are helping another program. You spent hours making that hut for Jungle Book. It was an amazing set piece for a play that has closed. If we had storage for the hut, we would have kept it. It just couldn't live in the wings forever. Now someone else can enjoy it.

I'm so glad it will be used for other productions. It's too nice of a piece to have to strike.
