MACKIE BUILT BAR FROM BROADWAY THEATRE SETS
THE HURT LOCKER star ANTHONY MACKIE built his Brooklyn bar using wood from discarded Broadway theatre sets.
The actor, who is also a trained carpenter, launched his own drinking establishment, called NoBar, in Brooklyn, New York earlier this month (Jul11) and he built much of the venue himself.
Mackie has now revealed a lot of the wood used in the project came from dumpsters outside Broadway theatres.
He tells the New York Post, "A lot of times when Broadway shows close, they just rip stuff up. If you can find out when shows are closing, you can get good wood out of the dumpsters. It’s funny what you can find."
