I love miniatures! I love models! And while I am not an avid user of Lego blocks, I do love when people use them to recreate or re-imagine real things, especially when they recreate it with a truly stunning amount of detail. I went and looked for Henry Lee online and it seems that he is pretty young, he is even expected to graduate with a BFA in theatre the same year I will. I found his Instagram page for the Lego Broadway sets that he makes (@legobroadwaysets). There are so many of them, so phenomenally constructed in painstaking detail. They even have a variety of miniature working light fixtures (like lamps, stage lights, wall sconces, chandeliers, “neon” signs, etc.). There are also little Lego figures decked out in costumes. If I were in New York this winter, I would definitely like to go see this pop up exhibit.
