Fairhaven Lecture: Past Plays, Present Lights: How Design Shapes Our Experience of Theatre

Design for the stage plays a determinative role in how audiences experience a piece of theatre. In this lecture, Professor Imhoff will use examples from his career designing Off-Broadway and in New York, regionally, and locally at UWW to look behind the scenes at how scenic and lighting design influence performances, how classical plays are reimagined through design for contemporary audiences, and how collaborative partnerships culminate in bringing them to life on the stage.

Presented by Matthew Imhoff, Assistant Professor, Theatre and Dance as part of the Our Stories, Our Future spring Fairhaven Lecture Series. More information can be found here https://www.uww.edu/ce/fairhaven.
