Scenic Deisgn Barefoot in the Park Freaky Friday Boeing Boeing The Penelopiad A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum For A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, I created a set that captures the musical’s playful spirit while grounding it in ancient Roman aesthetics. The design includes three distinctive houses—the home of Senex, Lycus’s brothel, and Erronius’s modest abode—each crafted in a cartoon-like style that echoes the farcical tone.

Scenic Deisgn Barefoot in the Park Freaky Friday Boeing Boeing The Penelopiad The Bald Soprano For The Bald Soprano, I embraced the absurdist themes by creating a surreal and disorienting environment that mirrors the nonsensical and fragmented nature of the characters’ interactions. The scenic design emphasizes a distorted domestic setting, where familiar elements are rendered in unconventional ways to highlight the futility of language and communication. Through exaggerated shapes and unexpected spatial arrangements, the design complements the irrationality of Ionesco’s work, inviting the audience into a world where logic and meaning are upended.

Scenic Deisgn Barefoot in the Park Freaky Friday Boeing Boeing The Penelopiad Parliament Square For James Fritz's Parliament Square at the University of California, Irvine, my scenic design drew from the play’s themes of political protest and personal sacrifice. The central feature of the design was a circular stone path, symbolizing the repetitive cycles of societal struggle and the protagonist’s internal journey.

Scenic Deisgn Barefoot in the Park Freaky Friday Boeing Boeing The Penelopiad The Glass Menagerie For The Glass Menagerie, I focused on capturing the delicate, memory-laden atmosphere of the Wingfield apartment. Inspired by Tennessee Williams’s vision, the walls were crafted from white scrim and steel, painted to resemble a solid structure but designed to fade away when Tom’s memories drift to the city beyond. This effect created a layered, dreamlike quality that mirrors the characters’ entrapment in the past and Tom’s yearning for freedom. The set shifts between the intimacy of the home and the stark reality of the city, intensifying the play’s themes of memory, illusion, and escape.
