On October 4 we present:
Art in Set Design: A Conversation with Set Designer Brian Perchaluk and Royal MTC’s Artistic Director Kelly Thornton
Moderated by Susan Freig
Theatre set design creates a believable world for the audience to sink into, engaging with the story, characters, and mood. The styles mirror familiar art movements such as Expressionism, which emphasizes the emotional experience of characters over a realistic depiction of their surrounding. The stage’s physical environment, often altered or distorted, uses lines and shapes such as uneven floors, slanting walls, or elongated forms to create a deep, gut-level experience for the audience, digging into the complexities of the human spirit and life. Brian and Kelly will share a selection of Royal MTC sets and discuss the relationship between set design, director’s vision, and production.
The Artspace Building, 100 Arthur Street, 2nd floor.
Elevator access at King Street entrance
Free Entry
Complimentary tea, coffee, and snacks.
