The Rink by Terrence McNally

Set Electrics Coordinator

Taking place in a dilapidated roller rink, this show became the first part of my thesis project as I budgeted, planned, drafted, and built the 9 Scenic Elements that brought the world of the show to life.

Signage

In Collaboration with the Scenic and Lighting Teams, I crafted a solution for each sign and idea that fit the budgetary, and timeline constraints of the project. Using a variety of sources and control methodologies each unit was designed from the ground up to fit within the scenic build timeline and physical constraints and optimizing the gear towards the needs of the lighting team.
