Toys in The Attic was produced on the University of Denver Theatre Department’s proscenium stage. The proscenium arch is 24' wide and 14' high. The grid height is 20' and there is approximately 6' of wing space on both sides.


The Toys in The Attic set was based on the directors choice to do as realistic a show as possible. The design included real grass, plants, and Spanish Moss.
