A saga of sets -- the first Twelfth Night back in 2003

Every year we make resolutions to simplify the park sets -- much of which has to be taken up and down between shows. But the best of technical intentions were often derailed by Steve Coleman's fantastic creations. His Twelfth Night set in 2003 was probably the most structurally ambitious of the outdoor Curtain sets. Still modest compared to his She Stoops to Conquer marvel for the first indoor play the Curtain company attempted (at the Throckmorton Theatre in 2002). That set had at least one furnished room only the exiting actors could actually see and mysteriously grew new bits and pieces for every performance. Breathtaking!



With a new production of Twelfth Night coming up for summer 2007, the company adds the set design talents of Sausalito painter Megan Kenyon to its Old Mill Park saga. Can't wait to see what she has in store for us!
