narbilu Posted January 14, 2019 Although the Khaor family thinks that anything cultural is a waste of precious time, they can't let the golden city of Kashgar live without the grandeur of a theater. Every seventh day of the week a small group of actors perform a comedy play. In this case a Kaliphlin soldier who has to fight an evil witch. This way, the Khaor can contol the entertainment in the city. Circus and other artists have to audience before Throll first before allowed in the city. *HSS - Entertainment The open air theater is also suited for my MOC of Kashgar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
W Navarre Posted January 14, 2019 Nice idea, and well built! I like the tree, the candles, and the way the snake head is on one end and the tail on the other! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mccoyed Posted January 14, 2019 This is very cool and another nice addition to the stuff you've been doing. Bringing a whole city or town to life with all these builds that show off different buildings and institutions is a great idea and it's awesome to see you throwing yourself into this, since it'll set the pace for Varlyrio builders who come after.

Muakhah Posted January 15, 2019 Very nice entry. I like the little castle and props on stage in the performance. So the Khaor family control the theatre? Does this mean that performances in bars and cafes are banned too? This could be the kind of thing where people grow to resent restrictions on their entertainment... I also really like the steps so the whole theatre is raised slightly. Another interesting bit in the story is that a family that thinks entertainment is a waste of time is in control of the entertainment in the city... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Basiliscus Posted January 15, 2019 Really great MOC! Love the brick built clouds and sky! The concept itself is a great idea and something I had been looking into myself. The benches and surrounding stone statues and tree are really well built and make the scene seem larger than it really is. Probably your best MOC yet!

Grover Posted January 19, 2019 Love all the little details with the canopy, the snake head, all the painted skies with the clouds, etc. as the background! The candles, tree, and stone benches make a believable but clean scene. Nice work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adde51 Posted January 21, 2019 Fun little scene with nice details. Really liking the curtains, nice job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henjin_Quilones Posted February 5, 2019 This is a nice little theatre, with all the details that one would expect to see: curtain, stage, stands, scenery, actors. The microscale castle elements work well here as the backdrop, and the grey columns add a sense of dignity to the whole thing. Too bad they don't value the arts more, though; a bigger theatre would allow them to present better and more elaborate plays that allow more citizens to be indoctrinated into the worldview that they want to encourage; the arts are the most potent forms of thought control and mass-education...

Rogue Angel Posted February 13, 2019 Excellent work! I love how the steps rise up to the theatre, I really like how you used the red and white (the alternating cheese slopes on the top and the round studs on the bottom) as well as how everything worked with the stone benches and wood benches and the tree. Great job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted February 16, 2019 Very comfortable looking open air theater. The bench arrangement is nicely framed by the stone pillars Good choice to include a tree for a bit more color in the scene Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
