Design Statement

Daniel on a Thursday by Garth Wingfield is a play about a man approaching another man at a gay bar, who has been going there every Thursday night for a while. Therefore, this lighting should feel comfortable to communicate that this bar isn’t a place for to exactly hide oneself. I will use my research by using pictures where people look comfortable and compare color schemes.
