Post Opera, Thesis and Hedda Gabler

3/30/2011

The opera was ultimately successful!  All of the tracking walls moved smoothly and with minimal effort.  The elevator functioned for the purpose of the production.  I worked the hand cranked winch while two others loaded and unloaded the arbors as necessary.  It was far from a perfect system but it was safe and it worked.  I'm sorry to say that the "Tilting" wall did not function despite the best efforts of our technicians and was ultimately cut from the show.  Instead it became a simple flying wall which served the production well.  

After many trials and tribulations with my computer and Auto CAD everything is working smoothly.  I have become productive as continue to draft How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying for my thesis.  So far I have completed the drawings for the mail room and have about half of the signs done as well.  I have been getting good feedback from my readers as I continue through the process and hope to continue doing so.

Last week we started work on the next Boston University Theatre production.  Hedda Gabler will open on May 6, 2011 (the day after I defend my thesis).  The design looks great and has sparked some good discussions throughout the department.  Pictures will go up on my website as they become available.

Back to work!
