The Padua Playwrights presents The Neo-Sacred Revival at ARTSHARE LA

This show was a real treat to design- the pictures don’t do this show justice at all.

The premise of this show was to have 9 artists have their artwork or sculptures be the source of inspiration for 9 short one act plays.   We instituted a rhythm where each art piece would be showcased as a cue its own, allowing people to take in a consider the piece before fading into the scene written about it.

I found the relationship unfolding onstage to be enjoyable on many many levels and I do hope that Padua returns to this multi-playwright/ multi- artist concept soon.
