My theater group is tiny and we have very little money. We need a followspot. Is there a way we can get on for cheap/free or make one?

errm free doesnt really happen because the equipment is usually old and can therefore be worth a lot of money.
Consider approaching your local amateur schools or local small theatres as regaurds to hiring, but they may not be very co-operative if they dont know you, or otherwise charge you for the hiring.
Otherwise think of looking online for hiring.
I think you might need to know some people in the business for this one.

Sometimes you can get an iris adaptor to put on an ellipsoidal spotlight. Contact all the theatrical supply houses around your place.

Definitely call your local schools and ask to borrow one. Butter up the theatre teacher--offer to lend something of yours sometime, or give free tickets to their students or something.
Some big churches have stuff like this, too.
