This director was very wary of her name appearing on a headstone. Somehow, I got my way.

I designed the set for this musical, taking inspiration from a derelict German water station. I also based the poster on a sample from an old German graphic art magazine.

Inspired by an early 20th century Russian dance poster.

This play takes place in the 1920's. I wanted a flapper wig, but settled on an old dish towel wrapped around the actor's head.

Digital tracing of the actor. The director wanted something stylized and abstract.
