English term or phrase: transportable sight gags
Kontext: Theaterkritik zu "Scrooge"-Musical

Production values aren't exactly Radio City-sized, but they work fine, with Paul Kieve earning his paychck as the designer of the **transportable sight gags".

Ich denke, ich weiß, was damit gemeint ist, aber wie lautet der deutsche Fachbegriff dafür?

Vielen Dank vorab!

Paul Klieve, it appears, did the illusions for the show, so \"transportable\" may indeed mean in the physical sense, in which case: I\'ll shut up ;-\\
