Director: Eddie Torres
Set Designer: Andrew Holland
As an assistant set designer, I worked with Professor Holland on the Wesleyan Theater Department's production of The Laramie Project. I assembled conceptual models for production meetings and consulted with the construction team throughout assembly while the designer was off-campus. Working in the large CFA theater, Holland designed a minimal set, with a panoramic projection screen at the back, and a raised wooden platform for the actors, complementing the setting of the show and the nature of its performance.
