Pantomime scenery in progress!

Tweet

All my Sunday mornings for the past month or so have been taken up with making scenery for the pantomime. It’s going to be ‘The Little Mermaid’ this year so there will be plenty of sea-themed décor. Our lead props and scenery person is very creative and full of bright ideas. She’s been making all kinds of things out of paper plates, pool noodles and wire. Meanwhile I have been gathering up old laundry baskets and brown packing paper (from Freegle and neighbours) to make ‘rocks’ that are light and easy to carry on and off stage. Here's the before and middle of the rock-producing process. It actually works pretty well don’t you think? All rights reserved. © Text and image copyright Fleur 2025.
