Dancing Picture Frame

Lucky Stiff
Millikin University
Costumes designed by Jana Henry

This is a 6 1/2 foot tall picture frame made of foam. It is held up by the actor from the inside of the picture box. Decorations on the frame are a mixture of foam cutouts, packing popcorn, pearl necklaces, and sculpy forms. It is hand-painted gold for the frame, and woodgrain for the picture box. The actor was completely surrounded by foam, the audience only saw her face and feet. The painting itself was done by Tabitha Pennykamp, and was done on spandex (to allow the actor to get inside easily) with airbrush.
