Measure for Measure was originally set to open in April of 2020. However, due to the pandemic, it was postponed. The original production was intended to be performed in front of a live audience and included scenery over the seating area as well as actor entrances through the audience. The design was later modified to be performed live for a virtual audience. The virtual walk-thru below was created for the original production to communicate audience sightlines, potential actor pathways, and audeince proximity to the overhead scenery. The walk-thru was created from a 3D model of the set in Vectorworks. Colors and textures are a rough approximation of the designer's original intent. The set was constructed out of wood with all trim and molding from foam. The foam elements were 3D modeled and then custom ordered from a shop (with the exception of the capitals which were stock).
