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"

"The Missionary Position" for City Theatre 2007

This was a world premiere. Our production was also produced at Merrimack Rep.  This was the 3rd world premiere in less than 4 months.  I was also designing 2 different production of "Contact" the musical during that time period.  I was glad to get to a comedy.  Really funny performances and strong, clear direction of this world premiere.  We were in seven different hotel rooms.  Of course that would cost a tremendous amount and scene changes might last 90 seconds.  Our solution was pick a "hotel chain" and then we would change the painting over the bed and the maid would have a new costume color.
