海 credits her Utica education, especially courses with Theatre Professor Laura Salvaggio, for helping her find her niche in the theatre world.
To the unfamiliar, Crystal 海 ’19 describes her field of theatrical props design like this:
“Look around the room you are in. 你看到了什么?? I have a succulent on my windowsill, a duck stuffed animal at the foot of my bed, 墙上挂着画, water bottles and books on my dresser, 等等....... While these are everyday items in your house, these are also considered props!”
道具, 解释了海, are items that performers use during a theatrical production, 道具设计, is “helping to create the world that is set through the director and the set designer by adding the detailed items that could be seen in your own home and are used by performers.”
海, who majored in Communication and Media with a concentration in theatre at Utica, recently graduated from Louisiana State University with a master’s degree in theatrical props design. 2022年夏季, she served as a prop apprentice at the renowned Glimmerglass Opera House in Cooperstown, 纽约, 磨练她的手艺——还有更多.
“我做过风景优美的木工, 细木工, 泡沫雕刻, reupholstery, 绘画, 以及其他较小的任务,海纳说。. “I’ve enjoyed working with the people in my department, but also meeting and making connections in other departments, 也.”
海 credits her Utica education, especially courses with Theatre Professor Laura Salvaggio, for helping her find her niche in the theatre world.
“Professor Salvaggio taught me so much when it came to set design, scenic 绘画, and props. She’s the reason I went to grad school. She taught me to always push forward and do the best I can.”
And as she continues learning in the theatre world, 海 has her sights set on the biggest stage of all: Broadway (“that would mean I made it big!”)
But as for what show she’d choose to work on? 这是一个更难回答的问题.
“Being able to work on ANY Broadway show would make me happy, but 歌剧魅影 was the first musical theatre show I ever saw on Broadway, and it’s the one that made me fall in love with musical theatre. 邪恶的 另一个是我最喜欢的吗, and I would love to work on the Grimmerie, a prop book used throughout the show.”
