"Found" sampler
Thanks to its brilliant embroiderer!
This shall be my new motto.
It exactly describes my year... I'm almost thinking of getting this as a tattoo.
Sorry for the loooong pause between postings. There's been travel, special projects, and a whole ton of work in the interval. By the end of this year I will have designed 15 shows. Not my all-time record, but still pretty crazy-nuts! Today's post is just a teaser - in up-coming posts I hope to reflect back on this year and a few of the questions it's raised:
Like: How to design for rain onstage? (Two shows so far this year have tested that issue.) What's with generational turnover in theater companies? Does Yale prepare one well for a career in theater? Are there special issues in designing for shows with African-American casts - I mean, beyond the special issues of every other cast? (Segregation - still a thing?*) Is WWII actually over?* And the popular demand: Why is oak so bigoted?
Been a weird year so far...
* Yes. * No.
