Design USA: Bridging the New Millenium, we are presenting some of the finest designs produced in Americans theatres over the past fivo yoars. The curators focused on three key issues for this year's exhibit to celebrate the new millenium. We selected innova-tive and stimulating designs that addressed the current trends in stage design in America. These thought-provoking designs exhibit a unique oxprossion of tho toxt in a now aesthetic for a new era. We also looked for strong collaborative efforts between the director and tho designers for sets, lighting, costumes and sound. For many of the productions exhibited we have collected the work of more than ono of tho designers to represent the impact of the production more completely in the exhibition format. Lastly, we are pleased to includo tho olemont of sound design and composition for tho first time in our display, bringing the experience of the exhibit into anothor realm of tho sonsos. Tho visual and aural designs included are exemplary representations of the characteristic that we see shaping American thoatro for tho future. Tho foatured productions were produced in theatre venues all around the country. In many cases, tho members of tho dosign collaboration toam wore based in a variety of locations, both national and international, coming togothor to croato a unlquo vision with thoir combined creative talents. From coast to coast, theatre design in America is proud to ombraco multi-cultural and multi-national influences in the new epoch and in the labyrinth of the world.
