Step 1: Theme
What theme do you want?
Ex: Flintstones
Step 2: Music
What type of music do you want in your show?
Ex: music of the Flintstones
Step 3: Props
What props do you want for the show to add to the visual effect and general effect?

Theme: Viking war leading a new chief
1. Opener: another group of Vikings attacks and kills the old chief ( Celtic war music w/ lots of percussion and flute soli) Uses “The King of The Highlands” by Antti Martikainen
2. Ballad: Viking funeral and anointing of new chieftain (somber music with a french horn solo) Possibly uses “Fate and Destiny” from Disney’s Brave
3. Closer: Revenge battle and defeat of enemies (trumpets sending off to war) haven’t decided on a price yet
Props: Large Viking ship from attack will come from. This is also where the old chief is burned in the funeral. Many small ships for adding more scenery.
Guard can be holding axes and shields, while the band ebbs and flows with the battle.

What movie or TV show is this scene from? Neither! That's a stage play, Red, written by John Logan, in the original 2009 West End production that transferred to Broadway. The actors are Alfred Molina and Eddie Redmayne. It's a fictionalized account of painter Mark Rothko (1903-1970) painting the Seagram Murals that were commissioned in 1958 for the then-new and now recently-closed Four Seasons Restaurant in New York.  Logan is best known as the Oscar-nominated screenwriter of Gladiator, The Aviator, and Hugo as well as the James Bond films Skyfall and Spectre. Molina these days is probably best known for playing Doc Oc in a couple Spiderman films, but cinephiles probably think of him first for his role as Kenneth Halliwell (opposite Gary Oldman as Joe Orton) in Stephen Frears's Prick Up Your Ears (1987) and for his scary scene-stealing part in Paul Thomas Anderson's Boogie Nights (1996):  I saw Molina in his movie debut when I was nine: he plays a small role the opening sequence of Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981).  Redmayne won an Oscar for playing Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything (2014) and was nominated for another one for his portrayal of Lili Elbe in The Danish Girl (2015). |

We should all start answering simple questions with this much depth |

can someone give me some ideas for music for a show about a mirror. There’s one prop: a wall ion the fifty. The two sodas are copying each other and near the end of the ballad someone touches the wall and it falls and the ballad ends with everyone meeting their mirror person and the finale is just everyone discovering they can be their own person and stuff.

I've been thinking some combo of Cornfield Chase by Hans Zimmer and Give Us This Day by Maslanka would make for a really epic marching show.
