Who needs to land a helicopter onstage when innovative lighting and sound designers can evoke its arrival? That’s how they did it in the stunning 2001 production of “Miss Saigon” at the Marriott Theatre. Clever solutions to staging challenges are one reason that the Marriott Theatre in Lincolnshire, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary, has thrived for so long, according to executive director Peter Blair. “I think we do several things in a special way,” he said. “Part of it is taking shows that are coming out of New York or off tour, and reinventing them for not just a…
