I Wish...

...That I could show you cool photos of my painted model for The Lucky Chance (Echo at the Bath House comin' soon!).  But that would be premature.  Gotta buy a ticket, right?

But I can show a photo of its design-opposite: the recent The Beauty Queen of Leenane.

Where Beauty Queen is detailed, realistic, and drably gunge-colored, Lucky Chance will be simple, abstracted, and a Riot of '60s Color!

The Beauty Queen of Leenane at Kitchen Dog Theater - finished set.

Kind of interesting to compare this fully set-dressed version (under stage lights) with the progress pics.

Or the original sketch:

Amazing what a little (ha!) scenic painting and set dressing can do isn't it?
