GENERAL NOTES for these "Prosceneium Artistic pages

The ratio of these cloths is 2:1 i.e. will fit a cloth 20 foot long by 10 feet high.

There are five scenes in this Musical. Four of them take place in the same "Suburban Garden" so the idea is to make these four as interestingly different as possible. [Additional sentence added 4th July 07.] .However, if you do not want to paint four separate backcloths depicting the same garden (or haven't the time), you can paint just this first one then change the atmosphere and time of day using lights.

Instead of these elaborate backcloths, consider using elements suggested in the "Arena" pages
