HONK! Footwear descriptions
*for any of the
“farmyard” scenes, cast will be representing a random farm poultry character
(bird, chicken, quail, peacock, duck, etc…)through costume. Their footwear is the primary cue for the
audience to recognize the symbolism.
Therefor… cast will have either orange, yellow, burgundy, brown or black
shoes. Obviously; black and brown
options are easy to acquire. The other
colors will be created via spraypaint by our costume committee. If you are assigned a orange, yellow or
burgundy shoe for your farmyard costume, we are asking that you bring in a pair
of shoes that can be painted. An old
pair of character shoes, or leather loafer shoe… whatever is easy! We’re hoping that you can find these at a
Goodwill or in the back of your closet.. we certainly don’t want it to be a big
expense. Canvas shoes will not work as
they soak up too much paint. Please
bring your shoe to the parent meeting next week with your childs’ name clearly
marked on tape on the bottom of each shoe. Our committee will spray paint the desired
colors. These shoes will remain in show
boxes for the run of the show and be returned to you afterwards.
