LUCKY STIFF
Denison University
a musical by Lynn Ahrens & Stephen Flaherty
Director: Brad Frenette
Music Director: Kevin Wines
Scenic Designer: Katherine Simon
Lighting Designer: Abbey Lynn Smith
Costume Designer: Camille Lerner
For Lucky Stiff, Brad wanted the lighting to help clearly distance the world Harry lives from the world he dives into in Monte Carlo. My concept became to show which characters are more detached from reality by making their worlds more colorful, and as Harry embraced that his life could be different than the bland life back home, his world became more colorful as well. Since there is also a cat and mouse sort of storyline, I wanted to also embrace some film noir inspired texture to show that, despite how terrible they are at it, Rita and Vinnie think they are solidly on Harry's case.
