I'm looking to rent, buy or borrow set, props and costumes for Thoroughly Modern Millie to be produced March 2011. Anyone know of anything? Also-if you've produced this show and have any tips, I would really appreciate your help!

I did this show a couple of years ago now with Diablo Light Opera Company in the East Bay, CA. (they just changed their name, I think they are just Diablo Theater Company now)

I can check with them and see what they still have, I have to say I suspect they have all of the costumes (which were fabulous) and perhaps half the drops. If you needed filling in w/ drops I can help with that, but first let me see what they have presently and get back to you - or you can contact them yourself if you'd prefer. I would imagine the costumes alone would be a huge help.

Where are you located?

Absolutely! I would love any help that I can get. We have no fly space so that limits the set. I need all the costumes that I can get. Let me know what you find out. Thank You!

I will sell you my props.
I have 12 typing desks with 12 fake typewriters and 12 fake candlestick telephones.
Also, poison 3 spray guns for the hotel scenes. And large laundry hampers, if you can afford the shipping on such large items!
