Set Construction

"At first, there’s nothing but a number of ropes hanging down, plus a few props. But, as the Mariner introduces himself and sets the scene in our imagination, painting the time and place with his words, he unpacks raggedly improvisational sails from a trunk and rigs them up." --Killian Malloy, WBUR
"Stephanie Brownell’s patchwork construction of the sails nicely breaks up the pristine flatness and right angles of standard digital screens." --Ian Thal, The Arts Fuse
