Synopsis: A movement-based performance telling the story of a common clerk’s sudden rise in ambition born of his desire for an overcoat
Design Overview: A stage design inspired by constructivist, dadaist, and avant-garde art movements, intervines the bleak, oppressive atmosphere of a cold city and a bureaucratic office with the vibrant, transformative world that the overcoat represents to the protagonist. The design employs stark contrasts, juxtaposing the drab, monochromatic tones of Akaky's daily life against a dynamic and modular set that symbolizes the overcoat's brief but profound impact on his existence.
