Knock 'em Dead (KED) began producing shows in 1984. At that time, the "season" was one to two shows a year in facilities rented by the partnership organization. This was truly a grass roots operation at inception. The sets were constructed in a neighborhood garage, and painted in the front yard; when completed, the set pieces were stored in another garage. A few days before the production was to begin, the cast and crew would gather for a car parade of set pieces to the rented facility. Then magically within the day, the set puzzle pieces were assembled in their rightful places on stage.
