INTO THE WOODS
2020 · Carnegie Mellon University School of Drama
Assistant Set Designer
Set against the backdrop of the ruins of a Victorian nursery, this production looked to investigate concepts of romanticism, ruins, and what happens when mother nature takes over. This scenery provided new and exciting opportunities by having characters enter the set through the wardrobe, balcony, tree, and windows of the nursery. This leaves the audience questioning the parent-child relationships, the giant’s role in the story, and the characters multi layered arcs.
