Catalogue text
Tuxedo worn by Rodney McKay to Malcolm Tunney’s lecture in the Atlantis Season Five episode, “Brain Storm”. Shoes size 43.
Provenance
Taken by Propworx staff directly from The Bridge Studios, where MGM’s Stargate series were produced.
Dress costume worn by actor David Hewlett as “Rodney McKay” to Malcolm Tunney’s lecture on new forms of energy in the Stargate Atlantis Season Five episode, “Brainstorm”. As brilliant as he is disagreeable, Rodney McKay began working for the Stargate program remotely from Area 51, called in to put out fires at Stargate Command as needed. He was an obvious choice to lead the science team of the Atlantis expedition, and his knowledge of Ancient technology also played a key role in Sheppard’s unit.
