The Maze: I used a connected dots maze construction using the small lights that surround the core portion of the sign. I went with a color sign with a black and white background to set the sign apart (similar to what I did with my maze of The Gherkin). I declined to include the corporate branding on the top of the sign. Because of the scale this maze is smaller than most and should be solved zooming in on a screen or printed on large paper. That said the maze is relatively easy.

The colors and effects are off on the SOLVED version but I was not compelled to fix it since it is primarily there for the solution - which is usable !

Here is a video of the Chicago Theatre Sign Maze being made. I have a YouTube channel if you like this type of maze making video.
