We‘ve been involved in the New York theatre market for many years, supplying tape products to some of the most successful productions on Broadway. Getting the show up and running is one thing. Getting the whole theatre up and running is quite another.
For their summer residency in New York City, the Royal Shakespeare Company is building a reproduction of their stage at Stratford On Avon inside the Park Avenue Armory in Manhattan. The Shakespeare company has sent 46 shipping containers by boat to the Upper East Side of Manhattan to build the stage they will need for a six week residency beginning this week and running into August. Rather than have to locate storage facilities for the shipping containers, this innovative stage actually incorporates the containers into the stage construction.
Building a replica of their stage in England means that performers will feel right at home on their temporary stage.
This presentation of six of Shakespeare’s works runs through August 14.
You can see a slide show of the construction process here.
