The Color of Rain will serve as a detailed account of the technical direction experience for the
ISU production of The Burial at Thebes: A Version of Sophocles’ Antigone.
Chapter One: Pre-Construction describes the preparation, research and testing prior to the
construction and build phase.
Chapter Two: Construction contains detailed descriptions of the construction including building
and rigging all the way from building and installation to strike.
Chapter Three: Evaluation of the process and my Technical Direction during the show. This
includes self-assessments of what I would do differently if the opportunity arose again.
The bulk of this thesis is not contained within the written text, but in the appendices. This
is where details of the drawings, budgets, project lists, inventory and shop calendar tasks can be
found. Also included are process and production photographs. |
