That s a wrap! Post-filming, toys from Black Friday movie set find new homes in Worcester
WORCESTER - Not too long ago Rebecca Greene, a set designer working on a movie, transformed a former Babies R Us into a fully stocked toy store, spending a ton of money to make it look authentic.
On Saturday, with the filming finished and a mountain of toys to unload, she and dozens of volunteers gave all those toys away to families in Worcester whose holidays could be made better with the donations.
There were two truckloads of toys when the filming wrapped up and Westerman s Restaurant Equipment and Prop House agreed to store them. They also offered space for volunteers to sort and prepare for a drive-through toy distribution in their parking lot. The prop company held a toy drive to supplement and some of the donated toys came from social service agencies that had received toys in excess of what their clients could use.
