I had the opportunity to design a floor package for Toad the Wet Sprocket's 2024 tour. The tour involved both indoor and outdoor shows with varying levels of ambient light. The goals of my design were to:

• Allow for more interesting visuals both in daylight and darkness. 

• Create distinct visuals to better differentiate different parts of the set in venues without a significant amount of lighting equipment.

• Elevate the stardrop visual by bringing another layer of stars into the playing space (and continue the stars idea when we cannot hang the drop).

• Allow for more detailed programming throughout the night.

​The scenic elements, combined with voile fabric scrims for the Titan Tubes and AX3s to compliment the stardrop, were able to achieve all of these goals while bringing a distinctive visual to the tour as a whole.

The show was programmed on MA3 and made extensive use of recipes.
