Turning back upstage right from the stage manager’s table we see the backstage corner with the prop box and behind it the scenery shop area. Prop girl Emily is holding a candle that might be needed for the drawing room set. During a production or rehearsal she brings props to actors as needed and also passes alerts to actors waiting in dressing rooms when their entrance queues are coming up. so she knows the play as well as anyone. There is a superstition about this corner of backstage, “It feels spooky,” she says, “like you never know what you might find back here.” Some people say that Emily looks somewhat spooky herself. Not just her choice of clothes, she is one of those women who could pass for a teenager well into her forties. Not at all into acting, she runs a successful antiques business, bringing in objects not worth selling to be used as props. Obsessively neat she keeps the contents of the prop box well organized, her ‘treasures’ on the bottom and ‘junk’ on top. Anyone in the company can take what they like from the junk, or add things they think might be useful. In spite of its remote location the prop box is visible from anywhere in the stage right wings and from the corridor leading past the dressing rooms all the way to the stage door. You might recall we saw the prop box from outside when the stage door was open. All useful information to keep in mind. (Back stage folk are called girls and boys whatever their age. They don't mind and most are very happy to be backstage. Few if any are aspiring actors.) The Alicism outfit by Aery Soul hasn’t been on sale anywhere for ages. Xyla hair by AprilYSH is from DAZ. Candle from Dream Home Great Room accessories also SAZ. Almost at the end of the backstage tour.
