Digital Scenery

Jersey Boys

Two Feathers Productions

Jersey Boys was a rich and rewarding digital scenery project rooted in the visual language of 1960s–70s New Jersey, combining bold typography, period textures and some dynamic staging to support a hugely successful production.

The brief

This, our first collaboration with Two Feathers Productions, saw us creating digital environments that captured the cultural energy and evolving aesthetics of the Frankie Valli era to support this fast-moving, story-led stage show.

Our approach

We created 33 original digital locations, spanning nightclubs, a courthouse, bowling alley, TV studios, record label offices, a pizza restaurant, and even a Cadillac showroom.
A major creative focus was typography—tracking the cultural evolution of the 1960s and 1970s through bold, expressive fonts that perfectly suited the music and mood of the story.

The staging made use of three large portrait LED panels, provided, rigged, and cued by Neil Dolman of BrightLites UK, that could fly in and out of position, sometimes aligning into an ultra-wide canvas and other times acting as individual scenic elements—an elevator door, a pizzeria frontage, or the Billboard Top 10.

The impact

The production played to packed houses, selling over 6,000 seats during its week-long run at Gaiety Theatre. Building on the success of Jersey Boys, Two Feathers Productions went on to win New Business of the Year at the Isle of Man Awards for Excellence in late 2024.

This collaboration also marked the start of an ongoing creative partnership for us as it wasn’t long before we were back to help realise Two Feather’s staging vision for their 2025 production of Little Shop of Horrors.
