Tait supplied six custom Periaktos, which are positioned on the mainstage and manually rotated throughout the performance. Each of the three-sided Periaktos contained a multi-faceted mirror face, a 12mm CT Flyer video screen and a grill-plated surface backlit with LED PAR fixtures.
Tait's automated helical trussing provides one of the main, artistic focal points of the set design. Powered by Tait's Nav Hoist system and hung from 10 half-ton chain hoists, the elements feature a custom scenic applique, integrated lighting and helical curved scenic units, which attached to the chords of the trussing.
Tait also produced a custom band riser package with custom LED fascia, as well as an integrated drum riser. Both the band and drum risers feature Tait's patented MagDeck system for increased efficiency in its assembly.
