CLybourne Park 

Director: Jeremiah Albers
Scenic Designer: Kiah Kayser 
University of Arkansas
Design Statement: 
In this very relevant show, we wanted to focus on one of the primary characters; the house. This house holds so many stories and significance by itself that it is important to show its journey from Act I, to Act II. 
    In Act I, we focus on the strength and this house provides by creating warm rich tones in the wood and the walls that make you feel welcome, this is the type of home that you would like to live in yourself. In the molding, ceiling pieces and other architectural elements we wanted to make them out of a strong rich wood that would symbolize heartiness to the home. The front door is also important because it is a focal point of any home. It is the representation of the hearth of the home, so we wanted to add extra detail in Act I with the specific molding and transom lights. 
    In Act II, we see the home become abandoned, hurt and forgotten. Some of its strength remains in the hefty ceiling and some molding pieces, but they are stained and full of mold. In our version this home has been at least abandoned for 3 years before the community tries to turn it around with the gentrification of the neighborhood. This should be contrasting the warmth of act I significantly with its boarded up windows, new cheap front door and significant superficial damage to the walls. It is important that some of the strength remains as a reminder to the importance of family and the events that took place
