Hi everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster.
This is my second year directing the fall play and I have ZERO experience in theater prior to this! I'm doing a lot of learning on the go.
Anywho, we're producing Front by Robert Caisley, a WWII play and we need a sandbagged warden's post. I'm not about the haul 50 full, heavy sandbags in!
I'm looking for suggestions on how to make prop sandbags that are lighter, but still look realish. They need to be stable enough to not fall over either (I may find a way to connect them to each other for this). We don't have a lot of money for props, so the cheaper the better. We have a few good sewers on hand if we need to go that route as well.
Thanks everyone!
