Description

In collaboration with our topnotch neighbor’s, TAIT, we built the multi-layered performance platform for the Usher: My Way Las Vegas Residency at the Park MGM. If you ask us, this build is the true star of the show…don’t tell Usher 🤫

Our team went pedal to the metal building the structure that stands center stage. The project called for meticulous welding and our metal team really delivered. This structure was decked out in dancers, and it is totally equipped to hold those dancers on each level, simultaneously!

In addition to building the structure, our tech team contributed their share of energy – covering the platform with LED lights.

Oh What a Wonderful Weld

ATOMIC, Assemble!

Thanks to the diligent work done by our metal and tech teams ensuring that this beast of a build was not only elegant but durable.

Special thanks to everyone who worked on this project: TAIT, Tate Design Group, Rae Powell, Matt Anastasio, Julien Sat-Vollhardt, Andy Good, Jeremy Yunkin, Ana Vallejo, Brandon Hutchinson, Aaron Rupp, Brandon Scholtes, Collin Haines, and Jason Gushue. Couldn’t have done it without you all!
