Upcoming Peformance - PICNIC, a play by William Inge
Set in a
small-town in Kansas on a hot Labor Day in 1953, PICNIC, the Pulitzer
Prize- winning drama by William Inge, centers on two families of women
who dream of a way to escape the boredom of their stifling existence and
domestic routines. When a handsome, young drifter arrives, the primeval
force of his presence affects everyone. Each woman responds to his
physical appeal in different ways, as memories, desires and repressed
emotions are unleashed.

Check out this video put together by Jack Rouse Associates on the Angry Bird Activity Park Project in Russia that was completed back in 2015. This is a great look at the construction process that goes in to creating exhibits and we were very excited to be the lighting designers on the project!
