A Midsummer Night's Dream
Williamstown Theatre Festival

The platforms for this show were fun to work on.  The uprights were 1-1/4" box tube capped with 1/8" flat stock on stop, and 1/4" flat stock on the bottom.  We then laminated two layers of bendable luan to skin these units.  The planking we did on top was 1/4" luan, 1/8 luan on the most severe curves.
 
The catwalk was a 1x2  rectangular box tube.  The decking for it was an 11 gauge  perforated metal.
The walls were framed out of 2x4 and skinned in luan.  They were covered in muslin and then painted to look like the Berkshire mountains.  They supported the steel catwalk that runs on all three sides.
