24 Hour Plays: Nationals
Summer of 2023 I was brought into the 24 Hour Plays community by being allowed to design the lighting for the Nationals showcase. I had the chance to meet various theatre-making professionals throughout a week of networking where we also had workshops on how to better ourselves in our careers.
5 plays and 1 musical were produced over the span of 24 hours! All were about 10 minutes long.
Performed at Classic Stage Company.
