The Mountaintop

My roleProjection Design

Projection design for Pacific Theatre’s 2022 production of Katori Hall’s The Mountaintop, directed by Omari Newton.

The audience sat on two sides of the stage, in an alley. A screen that dropped into the room was the main projection surface, and carried the montage that ends the play.
