In this month’s S*P*A*Minar, join Jay Lasnik, Props Supervisor and Props Teacher at Penn State University School of Theatre, as he shares how he and his crew of Penn State prop artisan students have built props for such shows as “She Kills Monsters”, “Angels in America”, “Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime”. He’ll discuss his process of building props from the initial design presentation all the way through opening night.
Find out how the Penn State prop shop has tackled such projects as
- a 6′ talking eyeball!
- 3′ tall magic mushrooms
- an angel with a 18′ wingspan!
- lightweight, (but strong) light-up boxes!
- life-size bull puppets
- and half of a dead dog!
