Clybourne Park Act 1:

"Clybourne Park" demands 2 entirely separate sets to portray the same house with a 50 year time span between act 1 & act 2. This means building 2 of every piece of scenery with entirely different finishes. My work was primarily framing the main walls,  and rigging the scenery to fly. The largest units weighed in at about 1400 pounds. Flown on the Maguire Proscenium's in-house system, the riggers installed over 100 points to manage 18 flown units.

A fun time lapse clip of the 15 minute change-over is available at this link:
