Hello the list. A friend is directing Man of La Mancha in his high school, and the place where he was expecting to rent armor is going out of business and has no armor. We're in Connecticut. Can anyone recommend a rental place, or else refer me to directions for building papier mache armor and helm, or offer any other suggestions? He says he might even be able to buy, but this would not be actual armor or replica armor, just stage stuff. This is not my period! Thanks-- Ruth Anne Baumgartner scholar gypsy and amateur costumer _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
