Queen Extravaganza Tour: Scenic Design
livedesignonline.com: Ric Lipson of London’s Stufish Entertainment Architects studio, collaborated with principal Mark Fisher on the scenic design for the Queen Extravaganza Tribute Tour. “The set had to fit into many different sized venues,” Lipson explains, noting that there is a 40’ x 30’stage footprint, with 20’ height. “The back wall is the largest element, with a video wall flanked by two side screens that can be left off if need be.”

It is always a challenge to design a set that will fit well in one venue. It is miraculous when Set Designers design portable light- weight sets that can shrink or expand especially for huge shows such as the Queen Extravaganza. I am really curious as to the designers thought process on his decision on the different types of materials involved and the layout of their set.
