The set of the Tempest now has ramps!!!

The Tempest set is an environmental set which means that the audience is integrated around the set and stage so that they feel immersed into the production. For example, the space in between the ramps in this picture will have audience in it! The audience should be able to experience the play in a personal way and that is the goal of our set!
  Keep checking up on the blog for more behind the scenes looks as we get closer and closer to opening night!
