Stages

Chesapeake (Sam's Circle) would open in December 1996 with the 2-Stage from the now closed Merced, CA Pizza Time Theatre which was closed sometime a year prior (which was the first 2-Stage to be installed in California, as well as being one of the first 2-Stages made). This is one of two locations to haver Chuck's Red Base (The only other 2-Stage to have it was the Windsor Cross location which closed in December 2005 with their 2-Stage). This is the last Prototype 2-Stage in existence after the closure of the White Settlement location during the COVID-19 pandemic. The show’s condition was not that good in 2015 with some of its Flow Controls messed up and messy cosmetics. Around 2018 / 2019 it got a minor restoration the stage would stay this way until mid 2022 when Chucks body turn broke along with a bunch of air leaks. Most of the Backdrop Lights and Flood Lights being broken. Munchs body turn would be stuck to the right for a little bit. Pasquallys mustaches is connected to one of his arms and his head turn had an air leak. Helen and Jasper are in the best condition right now. They would start 2.0 on June 25th 2023
