Cocoon Theatre Wins 1st Prize in Best Float!

September 2009's Hardscrabble Day parade was a smashing success as Coooon Theatre brought home 1st prize in best original float. Featured below is a 10 minute video clip of the event.

In the theme of the Great Gatsby, Cocoon Theatre's float was an original design conceived of by Andres San Millan, who maintained artistic control over the entire build process. Andres, along with the help of several local contractors and carpenters, brought to life this creation which was based off the Montgomery Place mansion in Red Hook. Taking four weeks to build, the float consisted of a wood frame built around a passenger truck. Paper mache, paint and plastic were used for the finishing touches. The float was built and housed at the Greig Farm in northern Red Hook.
