CATCO produced this musical two-hander as a treat to warm the winter months for their patrons. I worked closely with one of my undergraduate students, Brigitte Biedenbach, as Assistant Scene Designer. We created a flexible but realistic environment that evoked all the romance and nostalgia of the story using floral shapes and colors from period graphics. Although Richard Sanford of The Columbus Underground wasn't a fan of the script, he noted:
"This is an immaculate production of a story that hasn’t aged well."
