Set in a derelict movie theater, the tattered cinema screen was the perfect textured backdrop to our stage. We embedded lights behind the cinema screen, allowing energy to burst through the tears and front projected onto the screen fragments to show time and place throughout the show. Scaffolding on either side of the cinema screen indicated a paused renovation, giving way to a disintegrating mess of scaff pipe that blended the set with the industrial theater space. The scenes within the show were created using minimal set pieces that could transform with lighting to become vehicles, a diner table, a texas honky tonk bar, etc.
