Williamstown Theatre Festival

Set Design: John Ezell
Technical Director: Mike Wade
Assistant Technical Director: Serge Gountas
 
The walls for this show are made of steel truss, and angle iron frames with 2 layers of plexi as panels.  The Top Layer was shattered and was glued to the back layer which held it all together.  Each panel was routered in to pieces and scored in spots to give it the shattered effect.  The center wall has picked with chain motors and the side walls were hoisted up by hand and tied off to the midrails.
 
An important element in this show was the printing press you see to the left.  This unit actually had to function.  Five of the wheels actually spun.  Tie line was wrapped around a series of sheaves and was powered using a reostat dimmer.
