There aren’t enough accolades for the design team of Michael McClain (scenic), Eric Nelson (lighting), Joel Rodriguez (sound), Timothy Bowman (costumes), and Aubrey Kestell-Rodriguez (props). To pull off the amazing special effects, lighting and sound often have to be perfectly timed. Some standouts in these two departments are the Beauty Genie voice-overs, the frog croaking, the campfire, and the blanket ballet for which we fully expected to see a choreography credit in the playbill because the movements are that precise.

We’re certainly not going to be the ones to tell Mr. Cuddles that he’s only a prop because he is so lifelike. And the costumes are great fun, especially the green frogs (those are costumes, right? right??), and the overalls that the mom in MY BLANKEE wears that resemble the attire of the character she is based on in one of the most suspenseful scenes in that movie. This brilliant detail will likely go over most theater-goers’ heads, but not the one of this horror film-buff. Whether this choice was script-dictated, or came later, we love these overalls so much.
