James Maynard Theatrical Designs

It is interesting to contrast this PUNCH & JUDY set with the previous one designed for StoryTown USA. They are very different indeed! Betty and I finished this set just in time to send them off for the Summer season of SHAKESPEARE IN THE PARK in 1983. Total production times for the 8 piece set was about 8 weeks, start to shipping. I was never able to see these in the show, but I heard that it went well and they were used every season thereafter.

Later on I will post more on the costume work that Betty & I did in Kansas. Creating mascot costumes with large character heads is quite a unique business.
