Mother Courage and her Children
Mother Courage becomes a parasite of war as she, hell bent on her own survival, celebrates the Thirty Years War as the source of her prosperity. Considered one of the greatest plays of the 20th century, wartime virtues become fatal to their possessors in this stark, anti-capitalist, and music filled play.

The Pragmatists
In a setting that is at the same time a torture chamber, a chamber of the heart, and a chamber for a virtuoso recital, two former friends are doomed to live the past over again while experiencing the future in advance. A too-close-for-comformt tale from my favorite playwright Witkacy. Each of the characters is portrayed as a mask hovering around the central character.

Bowie in Warsaw
Set in the landscape of a true crime story from 1970’s Poland, Bowie In Warsaw is an absurd comedy about the repression of self expression and love in a Soviet era Poland. It was a pleasure to meet and work with playwright Dorota Masłowska, who created this atomic-era Polish landscape.

Joan and the Fire
Joan and the Fire examines the way in which history is constantly being rewritten to better serve those in power. When a group of performers staging their take on the myth of Joan of Arc are met by the myth herself, it becomes a battle of epic proportions to save history as Joan and the players each fight to tell their version of the story.

Princess Ivona
Ivona, a woman of few words, is forcibly entangled into the intrigues of a dysfunctional royal court after she becomes engaged to Prince Phillip. Her silence soon drives the courtiers to the brink of madness, bringing out their worst vices. Guest director Jenny Beacraft returns from Spain to direct this Gombrowicz piece. The poster is a tribute to Polish surrealists.

The Ugly One
Lette was never concerned with his looks until his peers, coworkers, and wife told him he’s the ugliest man in the world. If a pretty face is all he needs to succeed, and plastic surgery is the solution, will he be willing to go under the knife? The poster is a combination of all the performers faces, melded together in an attractive, if ugly, manner.

Medea Material
Resident Director Max Truax returns to Trap Door to direct another Heiner Müller piece, after his triumphant production of Hamletmachine, which “calculated chaos and mastered madness with purpose, conviction, theatrical artistry, and artistic integrity.” Medea Material explores the story of Euridepes’ Medea and its surrounding mythology, and will engage Müller’s poetry and complex intersectionality in a dancetheatre spectacle.

The Martyrdom of Peter Ohey
Poster for The Martyrdom of Peter Ohey. The photography was taken by the assistant director, and the concept was fairly set prior to the design. Loving the final output, and we were able to leverage each character as a separate social post to keep the momentum going.

Queen C
So excited for live theatre to come back! Poster for Queen C for Trap Door Theatre. As always, honored to bring their vision to a poster design: trying my hand at organic shapes and a more limited color palette.

Discourse Without Grammar
Alternate design for the excellent virtual play Discourse Without Grammar by Matei Visniec at Trap Door Theatre. Out of several versions, the red was my favorite.
