Modular frame and panel scenery is a system that allows many different scenic elements to be built from the same stock pieces. This flexibility is made possible by the unique structure and skin design. The structure is made of aluminum square tubing that has been welded into frames of various sizes. The skin is made of fabric covered panels that adhere to the frame structure with Velcro to create the finished look.View an Installation for an illustrated description of how our frame and panel system is assembled.

The panels are covered in a loop fabric and adhere to the set through the use of hook Velcro. The shear strength of Velcro is very strong which makes it an elegant and simple solution. Because our panels are covered with a loop fabric you have the flexibility to place signage and product displays anywhere on our scenery.

It is designed to be a canvas for the light designer. It paints beautifully with light. We also provide acrylic panels that can be illuminated from behind to enhance the light design. If you have a small budget for lighting we recommend our Bravo panels, (a marbleized gray), which look elegant and handsome under normal light.

Our most popular color is Platinum, an off white color that receives light very well and is loved by light designers everywhere. We also carry Bravo, Black and Royal Blue. Custom colors are also available upon request at an extra cost.

The length of time depends on the size of the show. The majority of installations take between 4 and 6 hours. Regardless of the size of the show there are many ways to increase the speed of the installation. It can be partially pre-assembled on or off site. It can also be assembled hours before the rest of the show elements load in. A clear ballroom floor saves time as well. Labor management also saves time, and adds speed.

Assembly of our scenery requires one MBP supervisor and/or MBP trained technician plus two stagehands.

We prefer to keep our scenery ground-supported with two sand bags on every jack. It can sit on the floor or on the stage. It is also suitable for being flown.

It can be built up to 19 feet tall free-standing. If it is built higher it will require overhead rigging support. Any width is possible.
