Robin Lear from Calvary Church in Dover, Delaware brings us this nativity scene for their stage.
This stage design was basically a very large silhouette. The back layer was a Bethlehem skyline painted white. The front layer, the characters in the Christmas Nativity, were painted black. Each “layer” was projected onto 1/2” birch plywood and was cut out with a jigsaw, then painted.
They wanted the entire thing to be elevated so the performers wouldn’t obscure the Nativity scene, so they attached all the pieces onto 6ft tall steel cages. 2×4’s were attached vertically on the front and back of the cages as a way to attach all the pieces.
There was 4ft of deck space between the layers, which is where the lighting and tech team installed all their lighting. They were able to change the look of the entire set from the booth. They also rented a star drop which was hung behind the entire set.
How can I get the drawings for these panels? This is awesome
