Mysterium Mechanicum

by Drew Dir in 2009/2010 Season, The Illusion

T minus 3 days until the actors enter the space, the set for The Illusion is starting to see some color and finish. At this point any wide-angle photographs would spoil your experience of the show, but here are some scenes from around the sidelines:


An array of lanterns congregates in the lobby, waiting to be hung.


The iconic table and chair from The Year of Magical Thinking still sits in the back of the house, now demoted to a work bench for our electricians.


Often spotting in the theater during construction time: the shop gnome.
