What does it take to create moments of wonder that inspire millions of guests year after year? In this fascinating behind-the-scenes presentation, Glenn Brodersen pulls back the curtain on the creative and technical processes that bring biblical stories to life at Sight & Sound Theatres. From massive stage effects and innovative engineering solutions to cutting-edge visualization tools, Glenn reveals how collaboration, innovation, and storytelling work together to create unforgettable theatrical experiences.

Using examples from productions such as Joshua, David, Samson, Jonah, and Jesus, he shares the journey from initial ideas to fully realized stage moments. Audiences get an inside look at the development of spectacular effects like the fall of Jericho’s walls, the challenges of integrating live animals, and the importance of balancing creativity with practical realities such as logistics, safety, budgets, and repeatability. Throughout the process, the team remains committed to a single guiding principle: story is king.

Glenn also explores how custom previsualization technology helps unify designers, engineers, technicians, and storytellers throughout a four-year production cycle. This inspiring session offers valuable lessons for creatives, leaders, and ministry teams on the power of collaboration, the importance of dreaming big, and the pursuit of excellence in service of telling God’s story with wonder and impact.
