Our Graham Cracker Sandwich Boards from the Original Production:
Graham Cracker Sandwich Boards

Made from the sides of an empty refrigerator box that was donated by a local appliance store. (Appliance and furniture stores are great places to get really big cardboard boxes that can be cut up for scenery and such.)

Slits were cut at the top and fabric belt straps covered with black duct tape were pulled through and attached. A black Sharpie was used to draw the markings. The biggest problem the cast had was maneuvering them so they wouldn't be bent as they fell down at the end of the skit The Invention of S’mores.
