Busy times this week on my staycation. Met up with set designer Ed Rosing early yesterday afternoon to put some finishing touches – and draw a peace sign – on the Così set. Mostly, it was about applying burnt umber to the graffiti and the chair to take down the brightness, and add some distress and grime. And you know what I like to say about the burnt umber on a set…

Così is by playwright Louis Nowra and directed for Alumnae by Jane Carnwath. This final production of the 2011-12 season opens on the Alumnae Theatre main stage in a little over a week, running April 13 to 28.

DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS: In yesterday’s post about Jessica Speziale’s Horseshoe Tavern gig, I incorrectly identified her drummer as Charlie Cooley – it was actually Dave Sufrin (Charlie plays on the EP). This has since been corrected in that post. My apologies for the error.

Before I go, here’s a sneak peek of the Così set (I took these snaps):

Yep, that’s one of the reasons I love working with Ed. That plus we always have a good time – no matter what. 🙂
