About Light in this Play

Some chopped up thoughts, ideas, impulses from meeting with Lindsay

About light in this play:


Constantyly shifting slightly
 Light marks Fran's attention
Stars out of Christmas lights.. clearly trying to be stars

When one light dims the other is getting brighter

The beginning of each scene lives in the previous scene 

Keeping both worlds present in time.

Drop rose
Drop letter
Drop light?

Designing how the play moves.

Gradients
NYC inhales as Cuba Exhales- How the light should feel
Slow meditative breathing
The liminal space between inhaling and exhaling
Inhaling and exhaling light
Breath marks time
Each shifting of scene is different and correlates with the story
There is never a complete darkness on stage, the light is always being shared from world to world like breathing.  
Stairs as liminal space?

Slide from Cuba to NY
Glass/Plexi sliding

Constantly shifting slightly
Light marks Fran's attention
Stars out of Christmas lights.. clearly trying to be stars
