tech. we didnt have humans to light so we used objects

renderings by Kevin Adams

fall 2020

Due to the covid pandemic, we postponed and postponed and postponed this production several times in 2020 and 2021. I had a LOT of time on my hands and lots of ideas bouncing around in my head and I wanted to get them out and into some form so I could still remember them. Really, I just wanted to keep busy making something. Anything. Also, I wanted to make something to excite and energize our pre-production zoom group and eventually I presented these on a zoom meeting at some point. They laughed and laughed when I showed them. Went very well.

These renderings are an indication of palette and color shifts and energy and scale, and this was a place to start when writing the cues. I wanted them to look like hand made objects from an earlier disco time and I wanted them to look like different people made them. Like it was a class project with many different hands. I told our zoom group “some of the hands are more talented than others.”  They laughed.
