Hello Everyone,<BR>
<BR>
We are doing a production of Jekyll & Hyde in October, and are looking for 6 identical canes to be used by Hyde, played by various cast members at different times. The description of the handle in the text is "Silver. Crook'd. With the medical seal on it. The serpent and the sword. And my name." We are mainly interested in it being silver and crook'd, with some kind of design, but no one will see it clearly enough to know if it's the medical seal or not. We would like to avoid the ones that are obviously animal heads. <BR>
<BR>
The cane also needs a hidden knife attached to the handle (not as long as a sword). One copy is broken in a beating, and it is this one that needs to have the knife in it. All the others can be regular canes. <BR><BR>
I would greatly appreciate any leads you may have, or if you have canes that we can modify to fit. The sword canes we have looked at have been clumsy and awkward to pull, even if we could shorten the blade. Rehearsals start next week, and we go into tech on the 11th, so we need these as soon as possible. The show runs through the 25th. Thank you for your help!<BR>
<BR>
Sincerely,<BR>
Rebecca <BR>

No one has time for the rock star BS. None of the techs backstage care if you're David Bowie or the milkman. When you act like a jerk, they are completely unimpressed with the infantile display that you might think comes with your dubious status. They were there hours before you building the stage, and they will be there hours after you leave tearing it down.
