 STRIKE DAY is mandatory for ALL Cast & Crew. We will also be asking for a few adult volunteers to help us clear the stage and "say good-bye" to Hadestown.

Searching for Set Pieces & Props!

Hello!


Our Production Team is looking for some additional items to bring our set to life.


We are looking for a bunch of pieces and objects that you might find in an old train station, old factory, or mine. Things like:

  • Old crates
  • Chicken wire
  • Worn and rustic items
  • Metal artwork
  • Handheld lanterns
  • Old rusted shovels or pick axes
  • Old metal toolbox
  • Old birdcage on a stand
  • Key words...OLD, rusty, distressed, wood, metal

Look below to get an idea of the vibe we are creating.


If you have anything that you might be able to contribute, please send a photo to Dolores Manuel at dmanuel@olsh.org or text it to 412.860.9567


Clean out your basement/garage and add to our set design!


Thank you!

The Production Team of Hadestown
