Hey its me - long time no hear. :)

Well, my enthusiasm for "Big" has me directing this year - and I don't want the piano to be a disappointment, since there is a 5 minute interlude that is only Josh and McMillan on the piano.

Our TOTAL set budgets are usually $600 so building a completely working model is out of the question, unless we got some grants.

Any ideas on doing something that wont be a complete disappointment to the patrons?

A few questions first.
Where are you located?
When is tech?
Do you trust the actors to be able to play the keys right?

Let me know as soon as you can. If there is enough time I can create the keys for you. Two different ways to make it play so question about the actors important.
