Good lord, a post about something theatre related... I was wondering myself if I'd ever get back to this...
So all my wallpaper came in now after much beating and screaming over shipping issues... Since I personally have never put wallpaper up, I was thinking the application phase of this was going to suck... Then it occured to me, there is a wallpaper guy in the same industrial complex I'm in... So we talked to him, and he got here this morning at around 9:00 to start in on the nightmare that is this show... It's now noon, and this guy is 80% done... He ploughed through units that I was figureing on half a day for in 20 or 30 minutes... The lesson to be learned here?... Duhhh.... If you have to do wallpaper under some kind of time constraint, get a professional... Yes, I will pay him slightly more than I'd pay one of my normal carps per day, but he's going to be done in one day, where my regular crew would take atleast 2 - 3 days to kill this project...
Next aspect will be covering the rest of the units with fake grass... We're all cut already for the units, but the actual application doesn't look to be pleasant... We shall see...
