BEHIND THE SCENES

ALTHOUGH NOT IMMEDIATELY COMPATIBLE PLAYS, THE RUTGERS ACTING STUDENTS PERFORMED JULIUS CAESAR AS THE PLAY DURING AS YOU LIKE IT'S WEDDING CELEBRATION. INTIALLY PERFORMED AT THE GLOBE THEATRE WITH A TRADITIONALLY SPARSE SET, MY CO-DESIGNER AND I WERE TASKED WITH TRANSFERRING THE PRODUCTION AND CREATING A NEW WORLD FOR IT, ALL WHILE HONORING SHAKESPEARE'S HISTORIC PLAYHOUSE.
