Does anyone have BOM, Catch Me or Sister Act?
Heres The Wizard Of Oz in London. Apologies about the terrible photo but its basically just the show logo projected on a black scrim

Theaterguy, thanks for the great shot of the Mormon show curtain and portal. Seeing that pre-show look, boy were we excited for the visuals Scott Pask would treat us too for the rest of the night!... (You can see where this is headed, right?)
Our own 2 cents are that nothing else in the show came close to the promise of this first look, with the possible exception of the home-made portal made of sticks and twine late in the show that imitates that first pristine show portal. Ah well...

Posted: 7/28/11 at 7:47pmI really loved the curtain for West Side Story tour.

Posted: 7/29/11 at 9:57amWhat was West Side Story's tour curtain? On Broadway they used a plain red and gold curtain.

Does anyone anywhere have one of the new version of Love Never Dies in London with the Opera House?
I saw it once someplace but the wuality was terrible.
I don't think it has one in Melbourne, I think it is just a black scrim or something

Posted: 7/29/11 at 11:42amIt was blue, and had graffiti that said jets, bernardo, sharks and things all over it. It was amazing.

Posted: 7/29/11 at 12:10pmThat's cool! I wish they would've used that in New York. I have a couple pictures I have saved on my computer, how do I get them up?

"The Book of Mormon"
(I know there was one posted, but I managed to get a bit more from our seats in the mezz)

Posted: 7/30/11 at 3:28pmMy issue with Wonderland's curtain is there was a dark and creepiness to it that set a tone that just was not followed up once the show started.

My favorite main drape. It is PERFECT for this show. Its the cover to the comic book we are about to watch unfold.

Can I just be a techie nerd for one second? Thanks.
One of my biggest pet peeves about a pre-show setup with a scrim/drop/whatever is whenever the actual drop is not entirely trim. When a scrim is trimmed, that means that it completely touching the stage on every part along the bottom. When it is not trimmed, the pipe that weighs down the piece is often slightly (if not largely) hovering above the stage at random points.
This is a simple fix, folks.
The most recent offender for me was Spider-Man and Wonderland. You can actually see how terrible the trim is on Spider-Man from Legally Broadway's lovely picture. (It is a nice scrim, but not a nice trim!)
