Hello everyone! 
I am first year teacher who is teaching in a high school this year in Fayetteville, NC. For our spring production, we are doing Rodger's and Hammerstein Cinderella ( Original version). When doing student teaching last year, I was placed in a middle/high school theatre program that  focused heavily on the performance aspect. Meaning that my mentor teacher at the time contracted or had parent volunteer to create sets for her. Although I am experienced with technical theatre, set design and construction is one thing I am still trying to figure out. I am currently teaching technical theatre during my fourth period which is set up as a production class.For Cinderella I would love to have a rolling house unit that can be easy to move. I figured having a rolling platform would be easy with two flats acting as a wall but I am unsure of the dimensions.On the unit, we will have the mantle with a window above it and the little chair. We are doing this performance at another school due to not having a stage and we were told not to have anything stationary as classes/ events will be happening throughout the day. Does anyone have any recommendations for how to go about making wagons or rolling platforms? A example cut list would be great as well! 
Kind regards,

Cynthia Burks
