Suggested Backdrops

It might be hard to be the bard, but with TheatreWorld, set design for your production of Something Rotten couldn't be easier! GLOBE THEATRE INTERIOR is an elaborate Elizabethan stage that's just perfect for this showbiz musical. For exteriors, MEDIEVAL STREET is just the drop to say "Welcome to the Renaissance"--and for inside Nick and Bea's home, turn to OLD WORLD COTTAGE INTERIOR, whose walls mimic the same architectural style. EUROPEAN STREET WITH ARCH is a seedy setting for Soothsayer Alley. FOGGY FOREST DAYBREAK is a perfect spot for Shakespeare in the park and TENTE DE CIRQUE - B, with its silk walls, is just right for the after-party scene. Have your jazz hands and kicklines ready for BE OUR GUEST CELEBRATION CURTAIN, an outstanding choice for over-the-top musical numbers that pays tribute to one of Broadway's biggest hits. Add a large stockade fence in front of REDWOOD PATH when our heroes get banished to the New World. Let TheatreWorld be your "right hand man" as you plan your own production of Something Rotten!

Something Rotten Backdrops

Welcome to the Renaissance and the outrageous, crowd-pleasing musical farce, Something Rotten. Set in the 1590s, brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are desperate to write a hit play but are stuck in the shadow of that Renaissance rock star known as "The Bard." When a local soothsayer foretells that the future of theatre involves singing, dancing, and acting at the same time, Nick and Nigel set out to write the world’s very first musical. But amidst the scandalous excitement of opening night, the Bottom Brothers realize that reaching the top means being true to thine own self, and all that jazz.
