Always not enough time! We would have done more technical support if we could have had previews.
Was there anything odd, quirky, innovative, funny or otherwise noteworthy about your experience with this production?
We decided after one quick pass at tech to drop all the front light and really push angles and shadows to tell the story. We wanted to create an environment where two worlds could exist and then smash into each other.
