After hitting a dead end with my designs I thought that maybe I was placing too much emphasis on the scenes being the court. I decided to look at exteriors and use a balcony for the King and Princess to be stood on when they greeted Dummling and his followers. I plan to have a forest to the side of the building and to leave the rest of the stage empty so that different props can be brought in to represent different scenes. For example, the inn scene can be represented by wooden tables and beds being brought in and the scene in the forest where Dummling shares his food can be represented by a couple of stumps(for them to sit on) and a tree being brought in.
With this area being so versatile, this design should be usable for the entire production.
