Theatrical Scenic Builds
Set Construction Portfolio
Hands-on set construction projects showcasing practical carpentry skills, problem-solving, and collaboration within theatrical productions, supporting scenic design through safe, functional, and performance-ready builds.
CAB After Death
For CAB After Death, I contributed to the construction and assembly of adaptable scenic elements that transformed shared materials into distinct environments. The build focused on creating upright wall structures using constructed flats and stabilizing techniques. Scenic environments were further developed through the creative use of acrobatic mats, sheets, blankets, tables, and chairs to define each room and support the production’s conceptual approach.
This project emphasized flexibility, collaboration, and resourceful construction methods within a student-led theatrical production.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream
During A Midsummer Night’s Dream, I served as Master Carpenter, leading the construction of large-scale scenic elements. I built eighteen doors ranging from 18’ to 4’ tall, complete with frames, designed to function in multiple ways throughout the production. Several doors were rigged to fly in, mounted on moving scenic units, or installed as stationary floor elements.
In addition to door construction, I assisted in building two moving platforms and a swing designed for actor interaction. This project required precision, coordination with multiple departments, and a strong focus on safety, durability, and performance functionality.
