Dear All,
I am involved with a local theatre in the production of a play which takes place in 1613 in the herb garden of a doctor in Stratford on Avon. I am suggesting to the producer and set designer that a sundial may be a good idea either on the house wall or on a pedestal in the garden. But before I get too deep into ideas, could you please confirm that this is correct and what sort of sundial would a country doctor who is not very wealthy have? If a dial is on the house wall, I would like to suggest that, if the lighting can be arranged, for the shadow to move to show the passing of the day from one scene to another. Does anyone know if this has been done on stage before? The production is not until June, but we have just started the designs and rehearsals. With best wishes, Jackie Jackie Jones 50° 50 09 N 0° 07 40 W
