The Pillowman

The vision for this in-the-round design was based upon the story of a green pig, one of the many tales told by the main character in The Pillowman. The pattern on the floor was a tessellation of an abstract pig, painted individually by hand in shades of deep plum and grey. A small ramp leading offstage utilized brighter colors for scenes taking place in a different world. A cage of chickenwire and a coffin of muslin allowed us to utilize shadow often in this production.
