Oh Wise BWWers, I need your help w/ my sweet 16!

It's crunch time and I'm completely lost! My theme is "backstage at a theater" and at first everything was going well and my gayspiration and I wanted to put "props" everywhere and have everything completely random and such; but now we're having trouble executed the ideas. What would be a good prop? I mean, a broom could be a prop but obviously wouldn't look good just placed against a wall.

Also, how can we let people know "ta-da you're being allowed backstage and in the dressing rooms of a theater!" without actually saying it?

I'm open to anything!! Thanks in advance!

um...you could have like a directors chair, and maybe one of those speaker cone things beside it, maybe have some signs that say 'Exit' with an arrow under it or something. I don't know if this helps at all, just ideas.

Um, black.... a lot of black. And a lot of costumes just kinda thrown everywhere.

In high school I had a very organized back stage though.. it wasnt' really messy. Our director was a anal when it came to putting things where they go.

Maybe have a prop table with spaces taped off and labeled for the specific props. Put a star-shaped sign on the bathroom with a funny label on it. "Le toilette de la Diva!" or something to that extent.

hehe! We want to get lots of random sequined fabric and such and just throw it around everywhere. I think we're going to end up with a sparklely head-trip more than a dressing room, but then again isn't that what a dressing room is?? lol

Round about the time of your third theme party, you realize: It's all been done before.

I recommend trashing the tired "theater" idea and throw a good old fashioned Rainbow Party! YAY!
