  • 1.  Superior Donuts Shop Interior

    Posted 08-12-2014 10:17
    I'm directing SUPERIOR DONUTS next May. Does anyone have pictures or know of links (places) where I can find pictures of the insides of retro donut shops? I have tried a few places online, but I still haven't found anything that seems to work for me? Are there any books with pictures that anyone knows of? Thanks.

    Dunkin Donuts started in 1950.  Maybe you could ask them to send you an interior photo.

    1) I should have suggested asking Dinkel's since they are older and in Chicago. 
    2) There is a video on the Internet of Artists Repertory Theatre's production from 3 years ago which shows the set: vimeo.com/19192986.
    3) Some photos I saw of other performances showed a really beat up shop, not at all charming.

    Here's a swank retro donut shop in Minneapolis:

    I saw it in Chicago at the Steppenwolf. Here is a video article about the production with lots of glimpses at their set.
