Hi,

Somehow I wound up with the three Drowsy Chaperone Marquees from the Broadway show. The sign 65.5" high and 167" wide. I am trying to sell these off within the next few weeks as I need to move them out of a warehouse.

Also have a broadway stage chandelier (no idea where its from) and it looks like a flying monkey cutout (maybe be from wicked)

I'm surprised no one has bought this yet. If I had room, this would be mine in second.

I had some interest earlier but I did not have dimensions or better photos. Now that I have all the information I'm hoping to move them.

That chandelier is from Spamalot, I think...from the end of "The Song That Goes Like This", maybe?

Somehow? You ended up with the signs? Did elves leave them in your yard?

I think that marquee is cool, but what is one really supposed to do with it? I can't imagine plugging it in to a standard outlet without blowing up the entire fuse box!

The storage company for the show didn't have the heart to toss them...so i am left with them. but its time for them to go.

Its different, but if you have the room its a great collector add.

I'm pricing them well below what other marquee signs have sold on ebay in the hope to move them soon.

You could donate them to BC/EFA for them to sell at this fall's flea market. I'm sure they would come pick it up, too...

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

It would probably help if you advertised how much you are selling them for.

I looked at other marquees sold on e-bay, they go for like $10,000 or something crazy.

I'm trying to move them quickly so I am offering them for $1,000 but am flexible. Else I will donate to BC/EFA. Does anyone have their contact?

If I had the money, I'd buy that marquee. I have the room and it would look stunning in my place. So would the chandelier.

Spoke with BC/EFA...sadly they can't handle the shipping of the items so won't be able to put it in their flea market. Any other ideas?

I think it's just one of those things that, out of necessity, had to get tossed. No one likes to think about that (God knows I always hated the moment when I saw my scenery toted off to the dumpster), but it's just a fact of life.

The Drowsy Chaperone Marquee has a nice home in Arizona. It is fully functional, but if you plugged in all the circuits at once, Phoenix would have a blackout! One day I'll get my amps upgraded... Had to repair some of the neon but it was cheaper than I thought to do. The sign must have cost over 20 grand to build -- got it for a HUGE bargain, even having it shipped!

Anyway, if you just light up 1 of the 6 zones it gets pretty hot!
