How do you build a tree that is strong enough for people to sit in. that can be dismantled every week, and that will still look real !Mac? Russell Whaley, assistant pro fessor of theater arts, and the construction crew had to find the answers. They began by fitting pieces of, two-inch black iron pipe together( with v. ood filler blocks to form] the ti uck and main limbs. The; pipes were then covered with. chicken wire and paper mache. For any "normal" tree this] would have been enough. But be-, 1 cause it plays such an important role in the play, the crew covered i the surface with Celastic "The, Fantastic" plastic. Real branches were selected for the tree. They were chosen for particular shapes and are from elm, maple and oak trees on campus and in town. Leaves for the apple tree will be made of specially treated pa per similar to that used by flor ists. Artificial and real apples will add the finishing touches Branches and apples that fall off during the performances or dismantling will be continually replaced by the crew. "On Borrowed Time" is the story of a small boy, Pud, who idolizes his profane but loveable grandfather. Pud's aunt and grandmother become increas ingly concerned about his hab it of copying grandfather's hab its. Many of the scenes are centered around the apple tree which will . bland at the rear of the stage.
