Snowbound Set Design and Build

Gallery 7‘s production of Snowbound is now playing at Abbotsford Arts Addition. I had the privilege of designing the set and building it. Here are some photos of the set build and a few shots from tech week rehearsal as well:

Large window bought on FB for $50
6×12 flats
Painting a melamine table

The set is quite simple, just a small stage with a backdrop. But it did take two weeks to build and set up.

The window is an important part of the play; it needed to open easily with a pull bar, revealing a snowy background behind.

This large “shrub” (plastic ivy stapled to a thin board) helps hide the backstage tech table from the audience.

The floor was done with painted stage risers; painted vinyl laid on the venue floor for the lower part.

Snowbound plays until February 10.
