In our production of Body Awareness, we pared down the scenic elements to expose the relationships within the play. The kitchen is simplified to a dining room, and with the use of furniture and a couple of pieces of art, a space was created without walls. The color palette was inspired by an old library, creating a masculine atmosphere for the lesbian couple to occupy. The stairs on either side of the bedroom platform allowed for seamless scene transitions.
