Build Process
Almost all of the set for Cabaret was wooden construction, including studio flats, stage flats, and some half-lap window construction and finish carpentry. As well as being a carpenter, I was also the A2 for this show, helping to not only run the show but load in and wire all of the microphones, and learned to troubleshoot audio problems in the middle of a show.
