2012 USITT "Ideal Theatre" Student Design Competition

建築と演劇を学ぶ学生がチームを組んで参加するアイディアコンペで、テーマは理想的な劇場。シェイクスピアのマクベスなど演目の選択肢が与えられ、それらに最も適した環境を考える。

Description
The competition encourages architecture students to work with young theater artists to explore the emotive power of space, how space can aid storytelling, and how it can be manipulated to achieve a dramatic purpose. The design of the space itself should form the environment of the play, supplemented by costumes, props, lighting, sound, actors, and the audience.
The submissions are to be based on one of the following four texts.
1. Macbeth, by William Shakespeare (play)
2. Otello, by Giuseppe Verdi (opera)
3. Waiting for Godot, by Samuel Beckett (play)
4. Antigone, by Sophicles (play)
