Further Information During the Dream Ballet a bouquet was hung from fishing wire controlled by the prop man Robert Taylor who moved it around keeping it away from the dancer playing Laurey. As the season progressed her efforts to catch it became stronger and more of a challenge! Colin Slater took the role of Curly with only one rehearsal after the original cast member withdrew
