WINNER 2019 EQUITY JEFF AWARD Large SIZE SCENIC DESIGN
“The scenic design, by Arnel Sancianco, is exquisitely thoughtful. I’m developing an eye for Sancianco’s work: more often than not, when I walk into a theater and a set immediately takes my breath away, the design is Sancianco’s.”
“But there’s yet more to like about this particular piece of work, not the least of which is its thrilling pacing and the integration of Stalling’s clear-eyed vision for the piece with the design work of Arnel Sancianco, whose set is, as one reader wrote to me to say this week, “a brilliant visual metaphor for the multi-tiered levels of our prison-like confinement by life itself.”
Yup. Could not have said it better myself.”
