I was responsible for the design and execution of this set. The truss was rented from PRG and hung with four chain falls. The portals were hollywood constructed flats that were wrapped in muslin. Each cell has two 45 watt light bulbs. There were three circuits in the portal which allowed for 3 different colors. Inside the portal were MDF panels drilled out for clear light bulbs. These were also 3 circuits that were primarily used to chase. | |

We took the body off a classic car that a local neighbor had, and mounted that to a wagon. It stored underneath the band stand and was pushed out from behind by crew. | |
 |
The car got through all the building doors with millimeters to spare! | |
| The hallway scene consisted of two walls that tracked on and off on ADC 220 track. |

On each side of the stage were these platforms. These platforms had to be able to support 10 people. We also had to maintain the egress underneath the platform for audience exit as well as actor entrance and exits. | |
