Hi folks
Doing School version of Fame in mid July
Has anyone got a set of 3/4 lockers that they have used for this show,
idealy the full height ones like you see in those 50/60's movies, you know what I mean,
that we could possiblily beg, hire or borrow.

Ideally in the midlands area Northampton, Leicester, Nottingham, Peterborough and I would arrange to collection/return.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help.
Cheers

Have a scout round office/workshop supply companies. Or even talk to a few of the big firms around your area - last time I needed lockers I picked some up from a firm that had some old ones just sitting around waiting for disposal.

I had a great business plan ... I was going to build bungalows for Snow White's seven dwarfs...
However, there was just one tiny flaw .............

Thanks for that Ynot
But have already left a few messages with a few companies around this area but nobody has comeback to me yet which is why I'm also trying on here.

Does your accademy not have any lockers???
As it's an 11-18 school they won't all be in use in July with 2 year groups no longer in school

If you could stomach transport to from Aylesbury I might be able to sort you out. PM me if interested.

Office surplus disposal companies could be worth a look. We saw a warehouse full of office furniture in good ocondition (including classic steel fll height lockers) a while back on an industrial estate in Kent (I'll try to find the name of the company if it's of interest) and a lot of the stuff was priced as "make me a sensible offer". Some of these places are alladin's caves for affordable props.
