These are the
computer-rendered images of the set as-designed. At this time I have no pictures of
the realized set, partly because it was not fully-realized, as designed, due to various
reasons. But -- the essence was there.
The overall feeling is one of the Industrial Revolution in London after the turn of the
(19th) century -- the trusswork of the theatre space was utilized with the look. The
set was filled with I-beams of iron (wood, actually) with layers of rust and rivets.
Weathered wood was also a predominant element, as was the vacuu-form brick on the
Stage Left factory building.
The upstage alley featured a factory-like skylight that was backlit (black tricot, with
20mil Visqueen over that -- worked great). The orchestra was SR behind the unit with
the grills. (The grills were both for accustic reasons, as well as a playing area
for Fogg's Asylum inmates. The grills were backed with black tricot.)
