BACKCLOTH (This backcloth will also be
used for the "On Board" scene)
|
| GROUND ROWS Will sit either side of the
stage to look like the side of the ship |
| HERES THE PROPOSED SET |
 |
Re the above set. Note the two sides to the gangway have now
disappeared. Instead the "Ship Sides" ground rows will be held
up with supports in the front, hidden by the "Tea/Barrel" piece
and the "Chest" piece. I have also removed the bollard painted
on the right hand "Ship's Side" as things were getting too 'busy'.
Sean suggests the ramp to have ropes so that it can easily be lifted off
by "sailors" before the dancers perform their hornpipe. |
| LAYOUT (Not to scale) |
|
UPDATE 14TH AUGUST..... This scene OK'd
by the Producer
|
| Below are photos of the completed left and right hand ground
rows of the Ship Sides with the supporting chest and tea chest/barrel hinged
to them. There is not enough room in the workshop to lay these out as per
the above layout so I have had to photograph them separately. (Hence the
same mast in both pics) A ramp goes between these two pieces. The horizon
line for these ground rows is one foot above the floor whereas the horizon
line for the backcloth is three feet above the floor. Not that it notices
much as most of the decking is hidden. |
