Hey Ted,
Does the guy in Michigan have a name/website?

Bill,
Just as a point of reference. There is a guy in Michigan that sells Professional Film quality "Poseable Dummies" that are muslin covered with plastic heads. His 5ft bodies are about $100 - I think $125 for a 6ft one. We bought several over the years for clients in Atlanta and tried to keep one in the shop. One was destroyed by Charles Barkley on the set of NBA Today ........ but you probably won't have a 6'7" power forward flinging yours around. All of that is to say, mind your cost on what you build for yourself and if you find yourself approaching $100, there is an alternative.

Howdy Listers,
We have a student production coming up that requires a dead “body” to fall out of a closet when opened and then get moved around the stage a bit. (The scene is pretty slapsticky.)
Anybody in reasonable range of Southern New Hampshire have something for borrow or rent? We’d also consider making something if anyone has any good advice on whipping up a body prop.
Thanks,
Bill in NH
