SET MOVE-IN. From Garage to stage.

Today the sets went from my garage to the stage. For the first time the actors got to rehearse with the major set pieces. (there's more to come.)  Scroll to see the sets coming together and then becoming the backdrop to this great cast. I designed the sets so that most pieces turn around to become something else. Lots of fun to watch!

The set's home for four months- my garage

The "kitchen" gets packed up.

Part of the large panel- the Italian Market.

Luckily we don't live far from the theater. WIDE load.

Everything is put on rolling platforms.

Refrigerator in place. (Mike made that refrig- Scott built the kitchen.)

It opens!

Classroom. ( the reverse of the Market).

Cast warming up.

Burger Shop is reverse of Kitchen. (signs to come)

Kim and Grandma in "Town".

Grandma visits the classroom.

"Listen up, class."

"I come from a Royal Family, you know!"

(Thank you to my set construction team- Mike, Bob, Scott and Steve- and Jeremy my intern!...And husband Eric, the expert mover! I could not have done it without you!!!)...PS- Wait till you see the BUS!  Hope to see you there!- Maryann

"Page to Stage" School Tour

Tomorrow I begin visiting local schools to present my "THE BOOK and BEYOND" program. I'll share with the students where ideas for my books come from and how one tiny idea from my own childhood experience turned into a book and then, a play. Every student is a writer and creator. I hope I am able to instill in these bright wide-eyed children that their everyday experiences can turn into their own stories.  I want them to dream big, realize that with hard work and determination, anything is possible. 

Within the next few weeks I'll be visiting, Birch Hill, Broad St, Sunset and Charlotte Schools in Nashua,  Clarke, Wilkins and AMS in Amherst and Village School in Mont Vernon.

Students at my THE BOOK AND BEYOND program in Ohio.

Lots of Crowns in this audience.

Ready to draw Princess KIM.

Kids--See you soon! I'll show you how I created my book Princess K.I.M. and the Lie that Grew, read the story, share some music, and tell you all about Princess K.I.M. The Musical... and draw a picture or two. Be ready to have fun (and learn a lot too!)
