|
Episode airs tonight featuring Mission Playhouse backdrop
|

Last month, "Modern Family" spent the day at the Mission Playhouse filming several scenes that will be featured in the season premiere tonight at 9:00 p.m. on ABC.
The exterior of the Mission Playhouse served as the backdrop to a wedding reception that Gloria (Sofia Vergara), Jay (Ed O' Neill), Manny (Rico Rodriguez) and Joe (Jeremy Maguire) attend in Mexico. Later in the day, crews set up a large green screen in the Playhouse parking lot where Claire (Julie Bowen) and Phil (Ty Burrell) filmed a car segment.
