Broadway Set Design

 

Broadway set design has always been about creating versatile environments that razzle-dazzle audiences. One of the challenges you have with a Broadway set, versus your average theatre set, is that it has to move. There are so many elements to consider: stages may vary in width and depth, sightlines, wing, and fly space, capacity, and lighting. Versatility must be built into the design itself.

Increasingly, the glut of modern Tony Award-winning Broadway sets have continued to up the ante in what is possible and what is necessary to draw viewers into a spellbinding world– from the revolving turntables of history featured in Hamilton and the deconstructive descent into Hell during the production of Hadestown, to the eerie cinematic details that trick the imagination in The Humans and the eye-popping, shape-shifting set of Beetlejuice.

Here at Movie Prop Rentals, we understand how to build Hollywood-caliber sets that “wow” discerning Broadway audiences. We also provide top-level service that troubleshoots any hiccups along the way and smooths out all the details, so you can focus on delivering an impressive experience for your patrons.
