A dear old friend of mine introduced me at a production meeting as "That Famous Polish Lighting Designer" and we all chuckled. During the production the crew gave me a pen/desk set with the engraving TFPLD. As the internet came into popular culture i needed an email addy. I tried 4 different names and on my last chance i looked at my pen/desk set and said of course "TFPLD"

"Street Scene" for Pittsburgh Opera 2002

This was my first official main stage for Pittsburgh Opera.  I designed for the young artist program and galas previously.  I also designed a production of "Cenerentola" but that was fashioned of the original production.  This is a Kurt Weill opera.  It is very different in that there is quite a bit of dialogue in the show.  Acting is very important.  This was very easy process and i was proud of my work.  It helped that the director and I had worked together before.  It also helped that it was in a theater i was quite familiar with, as well as the crew.
