When I was asked to write a guest post, I debated about a topic. Collectibulldogs.com has a wonderful collection of bulldog artwork, ceramics, glass, and books.

The audience travels back and forth in time as the present day characters learn about the lives of those who lived almost two centuries before them. While costumes, actors, and syntax styles make time travel evident to the audience, the set does not shift at all.
