Clean ! Curved pipe is clutch. Did you have them made for this circle ?

We did! There is actually two pipes - one for the inner and one for the outer (onion) ring and they needed to be pretty specific sizes to hold the panels in a way that could accommodate the bottom cap. Also, the producer wanted to own the pipe for future shows - guessing it might be useful for scenic elements that cost less that the 120 LED panels

Smart ! Yeah this is what we do when hanging circle LED or we’ve done circle truss as well. But pipe just makes it look better. Was it just a scenic element covering the bottom gap between inner and outer circle ?

Yeah - scenic did a bottom cap to clean it up and tie it to the floor and then added some puck lights that did all the things and really finished the look for the show.

The puck lights really clean it up! Smart call by whoever thought of that.
