I think Ragtime used the house curtain because it went with the "less extravagant" mood of the show
or maybe they just cheaped out...

Posted: 7/4/10 at 4:10pmDoes anyone have pictures of the Love Never Dies curtain or any of the curtains used for the 1996 revival of The King and I or the 2004 tour with Sandy Duncan?

I really liked Legally Blonde's and Hairspray's. Also Wicked's.
I'm sure theres another one, but the shows I've been to lately don't have curtains.

Posted: 7/30/10 at 6:58amAnyone have the fiddler on the roof 2004 revival pre show curtain or set up?

Posted: 7/30/10 at 9:30amI don't get why "American Idiot" used the house curtain? I assumed it would have a show curtain and I was a little disappointed when I walked in ad saw the red curtain. It just didn't seem to fit the concept of the show.

Posted: 7/30/10 at 9:54amI like the South Pacific tour curtain. I wish I had a chance to read it but didn't because I was in conversation with people around me.

Posted: 7/30/10 at 9:55amDoes anybody think that Love Never Dies curtain/logo looks more like The Man In The Iron Mask than The Phantom?
#536re: re: Show Curtains
Posted: 7/30/10 at 10:05amIt's not supposed to be the Phantom. It's Christine bot.

Posted: 7/30/10 at 10:41amThe text on the SOUTH PACIFIC show curtain is the first paragraph of Michener's TALES OF THE SOUTH PACIFIC. SO you can catch it in book form, if you want to.

Thank you :)
Does anyone have a picture of the pre show set up for Fences or the 2002 production of Oklahoma at the Gershwin?
#541re: re: Show Curtains
Posted: 7/30/10 at 2:23pmJust bare in mind too that that Fiddler photo is shot from side view in the wings.
#542re: re: Show Curtains
Posted: 7/30/10 at 2:35pmI believe Oklahoma! was just a blue screen with clouds on it. The show's logo was projected on to the curtain during the Overture.

Here's a picture of the Fences stage.

To those who asked: A Little Night Music used no curtain, just an open stage with a chair for act 1, a black scrim during intermission, and a chair and trees for act 2
