Be sure to reach out to both your faculty -- and staff! -- as well as your parents. You never know who's out there with skills to lend.

Scenographics, which rents not only designs for many many shows, but their blueprints always include a set of "how to" instructions that cover tools, measuring, and building tactics in general, in addition to the very do-able plans for the specific show.

Subject: Seeking Set Construction Help in Shawnee Mission, KS
Hello! I wanted to post here as I just found out the person I normally hire to construct the set for our shows cannot do it this year. I am looking for someone to build a few set pieces throughout the school year for our Musical and our Play. We have a small theater with limited space so we never have overly complex sets and the art teacher at my school is able to paint everything he just doesn't have any building experience. If you know of anyone that would be interested and willing the position would be paid and they could create their own schedule. Thank you for any leads!
I can be reached via email - enelson@bishopmiege.com
