Does anyone know of a good source for these candles? I'm doing Canterville Ghost and we can't have an open flame in the theater. We're community theater so the budget is limited.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hobby Lobby or any craft supply store will carry these.

We got ours at the dollar store but also have seen them at Michael's craft store.

And I haunted the local Goodwill for a few weeks around the holidays. I now own 4 of them, one of which came in handy for My Fair Lady although they had to be pretty tricky trying to blow out a light bulb

we also cannot use any flame in the theatre
