American Idiot Rock Musical / Abbey Theatre of Dublin

C.G. RYAN collaborated with directors JOE BISHARA and JAMIE MARKOVICH McMAHON and lighting designer IZ NICHOLS to create an immersive scenic experience for the Abbey Theater of Dublin’s production of Green Day’s American Idiot. This production won multiple awards from BroadwayWorld Columbus, including BEST SCENIC DESIGN for C.G. Ryan.

C.G. developed music video for seven songs using a 3-channel scenic projection design strategy. C.G. and Joe updated the addiction concept to be more relevant to current events, as well as the Letters Home concept into a “Mobile Vlog” to establish setting and time.
