Mixed blood tour

I had a tour of the Mixed Blood Theatre. The set up is alright seating is 200 the stage is a thrust fortunately there is only seating on the front of the thrust. The director liked my elemental concept. So I will keep that at the core. I will be creating 6 separate design over the weekend they will all be posted here. Its odd though, the script has changed immensely plot and characters have stayed the same, everything else is different I am waiting on the new script still I'm supposed to get the first act today and the second act Friday. There is a new actor in the cast too one with some amazing credentials having performed on both the Guthrie and the Jean lune stages. This production complexity and level of expectation grows everyday. I'm gonna have to ask for money, if they want me to work at the level the actors are at and the audience expects at the mixed blood theatre. Now I must begin piling through the enormous lightplots and floor plans to create my greatest design achievement yet.
