Directors: Rene de la Garza and Susan Rogers
Costume Designer: Lizzy Pegler
During my year long internship at Trinity Rep, I had the opportunity to do some freelance design work. This was my first full opera and I was thrilled to have the opportunity!
The prologue was designed as pop culture icons. Phoebus was modeled after Marlon Brandon in The Wild Ones. Venus was Marilyn Monroe. Other noteworthy characters included a trio of classic Disney characters, Spring, Shepherdesses, and Mickey and Minnie.
The opera was set in traditional Greek period. Dido and Aeneas were both in pink/red tones to emphasize their love. Other characters doubled in the choruses as courtiers, witches, and sailors. We also had three dancers that added various costume pieces to emphasize their roles in the opera.
