Theater Design Catch-Up Day!

What with one thing or another (hurricanes, politics, jury duty, etc.) this blog has gotten a little behind on, you know, theater!

So here's a grab bag of images, in no particular order:

King o' the Moon at Circle Theater - sketch

Two shows back... King o' the Moon at Circle Theater.  A fun one for me because it was larger and more detailed than I often get to design for this small basement thrust stage and because the carpenters and (new) scenic painter did a terrific job!

Notice the brick: that wire-cut effect (vertical lines, see 'em?), all pure paintery.

I think this next show was right before that show (or after? this season anyway).  Rasheeda Speaks  is set in a surgeon's reception area - another uber realist set.  With those fun hip-waiting-room-of-today colors.

This next is an oooold project, an indie film shot here in Dallas.  Sometimes photos just float to the top of the internet, ya know?  

This shows the kitchen of the condo where we shot... and where most of the cast and film crew lived during filming.  I painted and accessorized that kitchen, I set dressed it, I sealed it off with tape and a huge "HOT SET!!!" sign... and still I cleaned up after everyone's lunches (and breakfasts) over and over and over again.  Like being House Mom at an extended teenage boy sleep-over.

To round out the Old Projects theme, here's my only TV game show design.
