Episode description

Special Effects Designer Gregory Meeh uses a vast array of technologies to build illusions for live stage productions. He has created pyrotechnic explosions and atmospheric effects such as rain, fire, and fog for "Spamalot", "Women on the Verge", and "110 in the Shade" on Broadway. A special effect event like "The Phantom of the Opera" chandelier is comprised of many elements. Seen here are "Treasure Island"'s simple yet creative effects, as well as Meeh's expertise with firearms ("Les Miserables", "Miss Saigon").
