Set now ready for hire
Updated 29/07/24
Our Charlie set is now complete and ready for hire but we only have workshop pictures at the moment, it is as usual a free standing box set which needs nothing other than a flat surface to stand on. The angle of the two end flats can be adjusted to change the shape making the total width of the set range from 6.8m to a maximum of nearly 9m. The set is 4.66m high but can be reduced to 4.26m by removing the top roof section. The above workshop pictures show a width of 8m and a height of 4.66m. This is the permanent part of the set which gives you the out side of the Factory, Candy Store and the Bucket's Shack.
The Candy Store
The Outside of the Candy Store are doors which open to reveal the inside of the store
The Bucket Shack
As above the doors open to reveal the inside of the Bucket's shack. The inside is a stand up bed which allows the actors to stand behind and eliminates the need to have a huge bed blocking up wing space that you may not have. If you are lucky enough to have wing space you can use your own bed prop and not open the doors.
The Chocolate Room
The main Factory gates open to reveal the Chocolate Room with a Chocolate waterfall that can be walked through. With the gates open actors can gain access to the main stage from left and right.
