The R Factor Quiz Show

I built a stage set and props for an environ -mental quiz show that has been touring primary schools since January. It has been received well so far and more successful than last years show. The CE participants brain -stormed in 2010 to construct an interactive and educational show themed around waste management, Water conservation, Energy saving and Climate change.

The Set was made from Reused and recycled materials. The structure underneath was made from old gazebo poles and clothing rails. The covering was left over dress lining and it was all finished off by strings of drink cans, some sequinz fabric and MDF board to hold the shape of the windows.

The Rubbish monster was sewn together from fur rags left over from another project and decorated using bottle caps, newspaper and cardboard.

The podiums were made from MDF sourced with recycled pulp and decorated with glitter. The buzzers attached were made from components off a board game.

Some schools will be participating in classes to create their own podiums from gathered materials that will be used during the show and then exhibited during their arts week.
