Damn Yankees- SHaw FEStival

Director: Brian Hill
Choreographer: Allison Plamondon
Set & Costume Design: CORY SINCENNES
Lighting Design: Mikael Kangas
Magic and Illusions: Skylar Fox

Sincennes’s striking set design features blown-up images from 1950s advertisements, which are given further texture under Mikael Kangas’s lights. Not only is this visually pleasing, it underlines that the show’s representations are in the past.

The Shaw Festival has spared no expense in it's slick production. Set and costume designer Cory Sincennes has created a 1950's wonderland for the eyes. The framework of the stage is made of vintage ads from the era that generate an immediate smile as a nostalgic look to a simpler time. Opulent set pieces grace Applegate's house, while mod 1950's kitchens and living rooms are picture perfect. The costumes are splendid, full of bright plaids, pleats and crinolines for the ladies and fun patterned shirts for the men. And the finale costume parade of baseball inspired fashions was the icing on the cake.”
