Props and costumes for EVERYMAN and JUDGMENT DAY are coming together. Since the two plays oppose one another thematically, so too must all of the "plastics". Where JUDGMENT DAY illustrates how to get into heaven by merely accepting Christ as your personal savior and filled with devils, angels with attitudes, dead souls, and the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse--EVERYMAN shows how a person's deeds in life will determine what happens after death, and is filled with energetic allegorical characters, hip hop beats, and a rousing musical number of "We Are Family."
The devils in JUDGMENT DAY start out as displaced workers: sort of THE OFFICE-meets-a-BDSM convention. In order to avoid being judged themselves, the devils decide to repackage themselves. They transform from "Average Joe's" dodgeball team to something out of a Terry Gilliam movie. Toby and Dorcas change their names to "Misery" and "Retribution", while Tutivillus mutates from used-car-salesman to demonic chieftain. Rachael Zimmerman is costuming the show and chose a mask for the transformed Tutivillus: an exaggerated Commedia dell'Arte mask, bright red.
A picture is the mask in the the process of being built.
