Sustainability Efforts
Plans for future production
All of the scenery items were designed with the plan that the show will tour to parks around Chicago over the summer.
Used Electric Cables
The tree was partially fabricated with discarded electric cables, and information about e-waste was provided to the education department for distribution to school groups coming to see the show.
Use of existing road cases
The road cases already belonged to the theatre and were not in use during the time of the production.
