What I Did Last Summer .. 11.2007

Spoon Theater on 38th Street

my role: lighting designer

Synopsis: While his father is off fighting in WWII, Charlie and his family head to their summer home in an effort to keep some normalcy. While there he rebels against his mother and finds himself under the tutelage of "the Pig Woman," the town misfit, who tries to help him find his potential while pointing out the foibles of the upper middle class society of which they are products.

This play uses its overt nature as a work of theatre to confront the past, and in that fashion I worked to create a traditional theatrical lighting look.
