| Here is Act One as seen from House Left - in the audience looking at the stage. Act One takes place in the chambers of Sir Wilfrid Robarts, a solicitor in London. The walls are 14 feet tall, in case you were wondering. We had quite a time filling the bookshelves but thanks to our local library we were able to do a decent job. |

| This is Act Two, which takes place in the Old Bailey, the courthouse in London. This pic is a little fuzzy, I will try to get another next time I'm in to work. Research was hard for this setting as cameras are not allowed in the actual Old Bailey so I had to rely heavily on the movie. When they were making the movie they faced the same problem I did. Hovever, they were able to send sketch artists in for days on end to sketch out every detail for their exact replica movie set. |
| The two bookshelf units you see for Act One are on wheels and spun around to reveal/become the set for Act Two. The bigger of the two units is 14 feet tall and 12 feet wide but is easily moved by two crew members... if you're feeling feisty, one person can move it themselves. The smaller unit is also 14 feet tall but is only 8 feet wide and could totally be a one person job. Two people move it during the show to make it go extra smooth and all the crew members spin the wall units together, which still makes me jump up and down 'cause it looks so cool. The floor is a two color checkerboard "parquet" which I painted with some late night help from my friend Nick, who also happens to be the assisstant costumer. |
