- Season 1 : Research By Dawn Aulet STAFF
WRITER For
those who attend Pilcher Park Nature Center's Pioneer Festival and Pancake
Breakfast, the "sugaring shack," where staff turns maple tree sap
into syrup, will look much like it did last year. Participants will gather
on a platform in the wooden structure and watch as sap from the park's maple
trees flows through a metal pipe to the evaporator. Had they
tried to visit the shack a week ago, however, a much different site would
have greeted them. "It
looks different now," Nature Center Superintendent Debbie Greene said
as she took me to see the cabin Thursday. Transformed
for television When I
last saw it, Jan. 15, the inside of the sugar shack was made to look like a
cabin, complete with a stove, refrigerator and limited comforts of home. The
'cabin' served as a getaway for three characters from Fox's television show
"Prison Break.” No one
from "Prison Break" remained on the property when I visited, but
the set was still intact. On the
show, it is Nick Savrinn's (Frank Grillo) father's cabin, to which Nick,
Veronica Donovan (Robin Tunney) and LJ Burrows (Marshall Allman) run to hide
from the Secret Service. In the show Donovan is the ex-girlfriend of Lincoln
Burrows (Dominick Purcell) and she is trying to get Lincoln Burrows out of
prison for a crime he did not commit before he is executed. "Prison
Break" is about structural engineer Michael Scofield (Wentworth
Miller), who commits a crime in order to get sent to prison to help his
brother Lincoln Burrows escape. As many
know, the bulk of the show is filmed at the former Joliet Correctional
Facility on Collins Street. A less
well-known fact is the set tucked into the woods at Pilcher Park. The series
filmed its last episode for this season there on Jan. 20. At that time, Greene said, producers had a choice: either take the set apart or build her a new sugar shack, because maple sugar time was fast approaching.
They
kept the shack intact...
