Of The Earth – Lighting Design

Written and directed by Jon Tracy
Scenery by Nina Ball
Music by Brendan West

Of The Earth was a post-WWII exploration of the psychology of the traumas of war as played out in the mind of a modern Odysseus. Lighting was a strong noir approach focusing on powerful shafts of light, single source composition, and shadows.

The lighting was nominated for 2011 BATCC Awards for design and was featured in the September 2011 edition of American Theater magazine.
