Community Theater Green Room Discussion Board: "Bug" Crack pipe prop (Tracy Letts)

Message

   Hi All,

We're doing Bug, by Tracy Letts.  Has anyone tackled the crack pipe prop for onstage?  And what solution did you come up with?  In Bug it's called for multiple times.  Our theatre is pretty intimate, so any pipe prop has to be a good one.  Plus, I do want it to "smoke".

Thanks very much.

	Check with a local university science department and see if they have glassblowing/test tube making supplies. My college did. We made lots of stupid little glass pipes.
