Process
Design Concept | The core of this show was very integrally related to the experience of Queer and Jewish communities in 1970's-1980's America. Doing research into the four main Jewish festivals heavily inspired the concept of representing cyclical seasons visally on stage, and helped us derive our color palette in collaboration with the set designer.
