Originally on first reading i was not "touched" by this play. This was not a world premiere but we were the first real full production. As some rewrites happened and we got closer to production i started to become quite interested in the play. During the technical rehearsals I really fell in love with the writing. We had a multi locale play and it was dependent on sound, light, costuming, and staging to make it work. I would say we were pretty successful and had a great experience working on this play.
..................................... A photo journal of my work
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"

"Louder, Faster" for City Theatre 2011
This was a world premiere. I had designed jeff hatcher plays before. I had designed an eric simonson play before. I worked with eric as a director before. I had designed the other eric and jeff collaboration. So it was like working with old friends. This play has a lot of humor and some very funny characters. Fortunately this world premiere had only one location and was a comedy which made my life much simpler than the norm.
"Long Story Short" for City Theatre 2008
This was a world premiere co-production between City Theatre and TheatreWorks in Palo Alto. The pictures are from the City Theatre production. The production out in Palo Alto was a little different. There was no ceiling. I wish i had some pictures from that version. It looked very similar but would be great for you to see the minor difference. The musical is based off a play called "The infinite heartbreak". It is a interesting story of a couple whose life plays out on the night of their first date. We are in the bedroom of the couple's residence for the entire story.
