Notes from Skip re: Cabaret set design…
“Hope you’re swell. I rebuilt model incorporating thoughts from our discussion. It feels much better related to faded elegance and hopefully less Russian industrial. I changed the angle of side walls slightly.
The center platform is 32″ high (was 24″); two step units both portable - one circular (might be in 2 pieces); the other with landing for upstage entrance onto platform. The walls are now brick and stone rubble as if the plaster has been worn away. There is a free standing door that can move anywhere. MC enters down a fire pole that flips up after the number. The bedroom has bed, dresser/desk piece; wash stand, chair (one image with small stairs in one without). Train compartment has two options one with seats across from one another and other one double facing down stage (both have luggage rack). Musicians rail has gate and stairs into pit house left. Things that remained: cut velvet drapes; plastic curtain; sign with bulbs; footlights edge of stage & runway; tile floor.”
