This adaptation of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream- The Crescent City has evolved for about a year. I started working on it last year, and the students bought in. They've given their input, and the result is something we are excited about.

i think adding some more foliage to the trees would help the set look darker- scotlynn
ReplyDeleteI think once we finish the stage the last scene will look really good. We need to look at the final stage picture and the beginning stage picture and make sure that no one is being blocked and that everyone is being seen. If we could model the last picture like we do the beginning picture I think it could really tie our play together. And as soon as we have the skirts and the rest of the foliage on the steps and planks the entire set will really look like it’s being brought to life!
ReplyDeleteI feel that Eli and Colin, as well as the rest of the cast, need to view some of the original source material in order to gain a better understanding of the play and the language that is used in it. I also think that we should ad some stage lights to the theater side of the stage in order to balance out the lighting through the show.
