Divine words: Scenic design from conception to execution
by Palmer, Sarah Corinne, M.F.A., TEMPLE UNIVERSITY, 2010, 78 pages; 1479129

Abstract:

This thesis is a study and description of the process of designing the scenic elements of Saying Grace by Robert Smythe, an adaptation and translation of the play Divinas Palabras by Ramón María del Valle-Inclán written for Temple University Theater. The body outlines the process the author took in researching and developing the concept for the play, finalizing the design with the director of the piece, and completing the actual drafting and artwork necessary to realize said design. It also details the actual construction of the scenery, properties, and puppet elements, discusses the final product and offers self-evaluation. Plates of the drawing and drafting, and photographs of the scale model and final production accompany this work.
