Early Design Concept

The set was constructed using the modular "buttress towers" which featured originally in Chess the Musical in 2017 and used in several sets since. They are stored in the container outside workshop Plate metal "shelves" were added to the set to facilitate candles, which featured heavily in the design Dressing was various bits and pieces found in scrapyards as well as a selection of stock treads A flown, "staircase to nowhere" from the upper platform was achieved by attaching flying irons to existing open treads and suspending those, on open ended drifts, using Reutlingers, to the underside of the upstage truss cord.
