Abstract

The purpose of this Thesis is to provide research, supporting paperwork and production photographs that represent the scenic design for Anna in the Tropics by Nilo Cruz at the University of Maryland, Department of Theatre. This thesis contains the following documentation: research images which contribute to the intellectual design of the production and visually communicate to the director the ideas of texture, color, scale, and mood; photographs of the ¼"; scale model; a full set of draftings communicating to the technical director the look of each scenic element; a unit list which gives detailed information on each element of the scenic design; the props list which details the construction and purpose of each type of prop used in the production; and the props and paint research book which visually supports the information in the props and unit list. Archival production photographs are included to visually document the completed final design.
