Theater: Stage dressing and Construction

Wintersession allowed me to be a part of many sets at the same time, which I got to see being used in action. Seeing pieces that I worked on being used and played with by actors was definitely a gratifying and informative experience.

This is Collected Stories, which took place in a writer's apartment. The Matisse painting on the far right is mentioned often in the play, referring to the writer's eclectic style and fondness for collecting worldly art pieces. My art history helped me greatly in "curating" her apartment. 


Seminar was held in the larger upstairs theater. I constructed the stage and seatings here, and also painted some parts here and there. This one was definitely fun to watch how actors moved in a a minimal space like this set.
