Lig hting Te chnician Anne Schmitt references to poets and places throughout the piece. I learned who were the people that not only made up the So und De sig n Dan We id man world of this play but the people, famous and infamous, So und Te chnician And re w Und e rwo o d who made up Oklahoma, where this play is set. I shared Fig ht Cho re o g rap hy Dustin Karrat this wealth of knowledge with Cast, Crew and Design Team Pro g ram Jillian Amb s in an effort to expand our experience beyond the norm and Pro g ram Ad s Je an Laustse n beyond the expected. It is our hope that this time, work and effort now shines through in the final product that you will see upon our stage.
