Ok. I know a bunch of you are very creative beings! I've seen your work.  I need your help with ideas on how to decorate the stage for our Christmas play at our church. The premise of the play is this: there is a group of kids who have asked their town if they can put on a Christmas pageant on the town square. I need to come up with a backdrop of some sort that looks like a town square. I've thought about stretching white sheets across the back of the stage and paint a town scene on them, but I need something to go by for inspiration. Does anyone know any websites I could check out or have any thought or ideas on this? Once I get the Christmas play over with, it's on to Crocodile Dock and VBS '09!!!  Thanks in advance for any help!

| I always check out http://www.grosh.com/ for any kind of backdrop inspirations! They rent to professional theatrical companies. (too rich for my blood!) Also, think less of a "backdrop" and perhaps more of a few painted set pieces that will set the mood with a plain or basic curtain behind. A fountain, a lamp post, the back end of a few parked cars, etc. that can be quite cartoonish would work really well. Sometimes these end up looking much better than the backdrops. Stumps has some that aren't cheap, but I'll bet for very little you could replicate! http://www.stumpsprom.com/catalog.cfm?caid=666565

They do have a bayou landscape under new backdrops for the rental place Peggy had in her response.
