Really my first chance to do any set or costume design.
The Rocky Horror Show live on stage was the experiance that led to my wanting to persue costume and set design.
It was a great show, I worked with some incredibly talented people, and I made alot of friends.
Paul Russell directed it, did a fantastic job and really took a chance on me and I am very greatful for that, and the chance to have been part of it.
A link to Paul's site is at the bottom of the page, and on my links page (or will be soon). check it out.

This is the drawing i did that Paul the Director saw
which led to him having me design the lab and build it.

My costume

Paul let the phantoms design our own costumes pending final approval of course, this was the design i ended up going with, we had a "costume parade" at which we got final approval or critiqes, mine was approved,save for the black tank top. the final costume was: boots, tight faux leather streatchy pants, 2 belts, required flashlight, the fishnet shirt, fingerless gloves, blue glow spike bracelets, the blue hair, and misfits-ish face paint.

unfortunetly the only pic(s) of the lab i have, designed and built by me, each lab was actually a piece of plywood with a 2x4 lip on the top with large bolts hanging down, creating a type of hook that was used to hang it from the ends of the 2 rolling scafolding we used for various parts of the the set, random pieces of junk were found and affixed to the plywood any way i could lots of hot glue screws, and duct tape, junk used: empty water jugs, an old osscilator, a 1950's portable salon style head dome hair dryer, the filter system for a pool, an unknown phalic looking thing i found at an abandoned yeast factory used for the on off switch, and lots more crap. The two water jugs on the left were wired to light up, as was the clear tube on the right one and the dome on the bottom of the right one (which you can see is actually lit up, looks like 2 red dots) A cool older Gent from the theater helped me wire it. 
I believe the theater still uses the labs or they have retired to someone's living room as many cast members asked for them.
