Upon entering the Lincoln Center's Canyon West room, you are greeted by
a large ranch gate (designed and created by Dave Chandler) and a hanging
wooden sign (woodburning by Ralph Watkins).
The Canyon West room was decorated to the nines in Western regalia:
Cowboy boots on the walls, covered wagons in front of the beverage
bars, life-size cardboard cutouts of famous Hollywood cowboys, and more!
On the west of the of the room hung a large painting of Monument Vallue
at sunset (create by Mary Lou Meyer).
On each table was a little basket, decorated all westernly (by Kathy
Arns), and containing peanuts and other munchies.
To the audience's left was the first of three stages we used during the
show. This one, called the "Larimer Corral," is currently occupied by
Steve Gottschalk and Daniel Rodgers, lounging around before a performance.
In the center, right in front of the audience, was the main stage, where
the largest acts--the Medley, and big Production dance number, Always a
Bridesmaid, etc.--took place.
And to the audience's right was third stage: a chicken coop. (We know
it was a chicken coop because it didn't have four doors, as it would
have if it had been a chicken sedan.) During several places during the
show, hecklers poked their heads out through the little windows you see
and, well, heckled.
