Major Barbara was a crazy elaborate show. As the assistant scenic designer, I contributed to the model building and helped with designing some of the props and furnishing like the bombs in Act III.
It was set in a semi-futuristic steampunk London. Act I represented high society literally having a lofty, elegant appearance with the top of Big Ben seen through the window. Act II showed what it was like to be on the bottom in the streets serving at the Salvation Army with a much more grungy dark feeling. Act III was literally in the air on a flying war ship really pushing the futuristic steampunk feeling with lots of fog/haze and other blimp and balloon drops in the back.
