I'm assuming you don't have to make something that rolls with people in it.... so very stiff cardboard or 1/4 inch plywood cut to the shape wiil work. Fashion handles in back for the actors "riding" in it to hold it, and hinged legs to lean it back on if it has to sit alone on stage.

Audrey, if you could have a laugh here, a wagon, with a cardboard side, like a black limo, pulled by two mice. The person gets out and Say's, " I must have called the wrong prop department! "

OK, most school have the veh, the janitors use to haul around small stuff, use one of those and pull it onto the stage with a cable from the other side and off again. Use the cardboard cut out from the idea above and loose the rats!

Johnny, you have my old job from H.S.
