QUEENS GIRL IN AFRICA
A WORLD PREMIERE
by Caleen Sinnette Jennings
MOSAIC THEATRE COMPANY
directed by PAIGE HERNANDEZ
scenic and costume design by DEB SIVIGNY
lighting and projection design by SARAH TUNDERMANN
sound design by DAVID LAMONT WILSON
“The set, lighting, projections and sound design (by Debra Kim Sivigny, Sarah Tunderman, and David Lamont respectively) not only enhance the story, but they are also key characters in the play that skillfully raise the emotional stakes in scenes, create moments of levity and remind the audience of the historical context layered throughout Jackie’s journey. News headlines, photos, beautiful graphics and African patterns are projected against panels on the stage that arrest our hearts and minds.
Surtitles (captions at the top of screen or stage) have been integrated into the artistic design of the show to make every performance accessible.”
– Sherrita Wilkins, DC Metro Theatre Arts
