Our dance teachers always have suggestions for new designs for their recital themes. Over the last couple of years we have created The Daily News, Flipping Channels, and Weather Map for our dance clients. This year we are adding Fun & Games, Coast to Coast and Transportaion to meet their needs.

Many of our creative event planners have ideas for new themes and have led us to create an entire series of backdrops. We created the Pirate backdrops backdrops to wrap a large gymnasium. Our newest set of backdrops is the Tropicana. We are continuing to add backdrops to many other themes including the Oriental series.

After the new  idea has been adopted, we start the work of producing the backdrop. Our designers begin the preliminary design. They will work many hours refining their original image and getting feedback from the client throughout the design process. When they are satisfied they have created the best design possible for the new backdrop the painting will begin.

With the new design in hand the team of artists in the Backdrops Fantastic Studio begin to bring the 800 square feet of fabric to life. Over several days the blank canvas is transformed to create a piece of art. The meticulous care that is taken in every step of the creative process makes the difference in producing another mediocre backdrop or a truly fantastic backdrop.

Watch as the artists bring the new Decades 4 backdrop to life:

Dear Backdrops Fantastic,
I think you know that I have been very appreciative of the excellent customer service, wonderful telephone manner and “fantastic” level of communication your company has shown me in the last two years.
I have been renting backdrops for this and other productions for 11 years, now, and I can say without qualification that Backdrops Fantastic is, in a word, Fantastic!
Where others treat my little, one-man production company like a fly on the wall… perhaps because I “only” rent once or twice a year, every person I have spoken with at Backdrops Fantastic, without exception, has treated me like a valued customer, has listened to my needs and concerns and worked WITH me to make my shows a success.
I have, over the years, suffered a few “horror stories” with regard to drops, so it’s always a stressful item on the agenda — getting the drops reserved, confirming the reservation and dates, confirming availability, ensuring shipment to the right address on the right day at the right time…
and so on, and so on. Your process is easy, proactive (I love getting calls and shipping updates so I know that the drops are on the way), and communicative. I particularly like your year-to-year agreement.
The first time we did business together, you “saved” me when a reservation I had for drops with another company got “lost” in their card file somehow and, with only a few weeks before opening I was left with no Nutcracker drops. I called every company I know about and came across yours via internet searching. Maureen was the first sympathetic person I talked to in all of my searching and you collectively managed to find a way to get drops to me in time to save the day.
I have since recommended your company to anyone who has asked me where to get drops, yours will always be the first on my list, not just because of the “save,” but because of your consistent follow-up and reliable service, combined with a superior product. I can tell by your attention to detail with regard to where and when the drops need to be returned, that you are treating every customer down the line in a similar way.
I expect to be producing the Nutcracker for years to come and expect to be a long time customer. I do direct one or two other shows during the year as well, and we occasionally rent drops for those as well, so I may well be in the market again soon.
Thanks for demonstrating the value of a customer-care focus and excellent quality.

In addition to the wonderful Christmas spectacle, we are especially excited about a holiday tradition and event that so many of our clients take advantage of:
THE NUTCRACKER!!

Yes, the Nutcracker, where all of the little girls want to be Clara next year, and want to grow up to be the beautiful Snow Queen one day. The Nutcracker, where in one 2-hour sitting, you can go from Victorian times to a snow-covered fantasy, to the Kingdom of Sweets without ever leaving your seat!

We applaud our dance clients for mounting such a huge show at such a busy time. We love how so many people are involved in this one show. We love the Nutcracker here, and we are so glad that we can play a small part in so many different dance studio’s happy events with some of the following:
