A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM - opening scene

For the production of A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM at Intrepid Shakespeare in Encinitas, California.
Author William Shakespeare. Directed by Colleen Kollar Smith, Christy Yael. Featuring Sean Cox, Sandy Campbell, Taylor Peckham, Tom Stephenson, David McBean, Eddie Yaroch, Savvy Scopelleti, Antonio TJ Johnson, Lauren King, Rin Ehlers, Kevin Koppman-Gue, Brian Mackey, Danny Campbell.

I was the Scenic Designer for this production.

A musical version of Shakespeare’s beloved comedy featuring music from The Four Tops, The Temptations, Sam Cooke, The Turtles, and much more. Young lovers, human and fairy royalty, and an amateur theatre troupe reel through romance and spellcraft in one of Shakespeare’s most hilarious and enchanting works.

Challenges:
— Hand dyed and made the front drape at 20 feet tall by 60 feet wide
— Airbrushed the flutes on the 20 foot tall columns. These columns magically dropped from the grid into neat little piles when Puck pointed at them
— Floor was painted in about 10 layers with a mop.
— Reused the trees from my previous show but laid them out in a different way. Also added erosion cloth in front to give illusion of hanging leaves/branches.
— Yet another severe time constraint on this show. There were a few redesigns and rebuilds.
