Theater: Stage




Our second summer production was Godspell, which performed outside on campus. I hadn't known about stagecraft beforehand so assembling staircases and dressing the set was a lot of hard work but great fun!


It's hard to see, but the center stage has two levels, so the band pit is in the center behind the performing area. The catwalk was the connect the stage to the AV equipment off to the far right. The towers are these amazing pieces of sound equipment.


I wasn't needed for additional deck duties in Godspell, but as props master I helped out more in the preliminary set up. You can see a bit of the lighting used in the show above.

Here are also some more set photos from Hello Dolly. Researching and pulling together (a stylized version) period setting was a great experience.
