Waiting to begin the first dress rehearsal of “Almost, Maine.” At the tech table, from left to right is Skip Grover, the director, Steve Chene, the TD, and student Keenan Minogue, sound designer.
Light plot for “Neat.” This is a remount of the Renaissance Theaterworks production (originally performed in January, 2012). Marti Gobels will reprise her role as Charlayne Harris. It will be performed at the Kohler Arts Center in Sheboygan the week of July 8th. The light plot, is, of course, a revision of the original, just — rounder.
Drafted elevations for “Music in the Air.” Not shown are the 4 rolling towers. A final touch will be changing the tops of the flip panels to be a little more architectural — gables, clock tower, that sort of thing.
Finishing up the elevation of “Music in the Air.” Next step, drawings for the shop!
The deck of “Almost, Maine,” viewed from the very cramped catwalks of the Hicklin Theatre. That’s student Alison Blair painting the edges of the planks.
“Music in the Air” Sketchup rough sketch with some revisions to the stair cases. Flats shown will eventually have cutout edges; this drawing is primarily to give the director a sense of the spatial relationships going on.
Some of my artwork is currently hanging in the lobby of Madison’s Bartell Theatre through next month. This is a picture of “Conan #1,” which is one of my favorites.
More progress on the deck for this summer’s “Almost, Maine.”
Quick and dirty Google SketchUp model for “Music in the Air.” The director and I have been discussing the stair/balcony/door combo seen stage right. The stage left stair arrangment is a possible alternative. The upstage vertical panels flip 180 to reveal a different paint treatment. There’s no backstage, just a crossover behind the wall, and the two large polygonal structures right and left are the green room and equipment room. There is no fly space, either — after all, we’re doing this in a tent. . .
