Theater




Designers end up getting all sorts of jobs. I recently visited a former student who was doing fascinating work in set design. It is a great example of merging art, design and engineering.


Jeff was very gracious and toured me and my family around the wonderful sets made at Sight and Sound Theater. It is encouraging to see that people can take largely unconstrained ideas, draw them and then build them in such grand style. They bring much enjoyment to everyone involved.




I’m also impressed by all the attention to detail that is rooted in experience. Knowing where the actors wear out parts, where they actually walk, what parts have to be done with high resolution and which can be simplified.
