The Duchess of Malfi


Considered one of the greatest English renaissance dramas, a Duchess marries beneath her class only to meet a nightmarish fate when her brothers seek revenge in this tale of greed, ambition, love, and lost innocence. CSULB continues a tradition of reimagining classic works with this bloody Jacobean tragedy.

Concept for the scenic of The Duchess of Malfi:
"I feel like all the characters are going through a path; there are so many truths and evils under the table that are waiting to be discovered so I wanted to create layers, and an atmosphere of mystery waiting to be uncovered. With the crack in the floor it forms a path but also something dangerous."
