| Description: | In the Victorian Era, the best theatre houses produced posters from fine printing presses showing architectural elements of the playhouse. Also on the poster sheets: aspects of the set design & costume design of a show from the season. Families would purchase the posters and cut & paste together a scale-model replica. A script was included in this kit so that families could mount their own theatrical production on a table-top in their drawing room. The UCSD Arts Libraries hosts an annual Paper Theatre Festival (an exhibit with live performances). Come to a Paper Theatre exhibit on Wednesday, December 13 at 12:30 p.m. for a lively event at the exhibit site. (Exhibit is up all through December and January). |
