I'm directing a one-act play and would like to buy little opening-night gifts for my cast. The play is about jewelry theifs and it is very silly, anyone have any sugggestions of cheap things I could get that would relate to the show? I was thinking something like gummy-diamonds but I'm not sure if they exist....

What about plastic rings and jewelery you can buy at a party store. Or ring pops.

Clearly, I have a lot of time on my hands.
Am I cut out to spend my time this way?

You can get rings that have giant diamond-shaped hard candy on them. Delicious. 
Or what about those candy necklaces?

Dollar tree... Tons of fake jewelry and CANDY jewelry! I just got everyone an M*azing Candy bar and wrote them a little note when I directed. Then again there was no point to my one-act so I could go for a theme.

Just in case you're writing the press releases, too, greeneyes:

jewelry or jewellery.

As far as gifts, have you considered ringpops, available by the gazillion at Sams or Costco? My daughter's favorite for flavorful glamming.

You could give them free-round trip plane tickets to anywhere in the country! Oh..wait...that was only the fans at the last Dallas Mavericks home game of the regular season....
I say go with the ring pop idea or be creative and create a refrigerator magnet that either has a fake ring on it or some spangles and jewels as a momento that will last a bit longer than candy. Make sure the title of the show is on there as well if possible.

Posted: 4/22/06 at 6:13pmI agree with something more lasting than candy. Inexpensive key chain with some type of bling fob perhaps.
Rest in peace, Iflitifloat.
