Design Concept:

Fueled by greed, jealousy, and lust, characters are driven to attack and butcher one another for personal gain and pride. Our specific production pursued the visual motif of cannibalism; the wood texture is reminiscent of "raw meat," the ceiling beams reach over the space as if boney, skeleton fingers are manipulating its inhabitants, and the burgundy entryway is the bloody mouth in a sea of green greed. Beyond the metaphorical, Deathtrap calls for a converted stable-turned-office, decorated with murder mystery memorabilia.
