I think mostly about clothes, sex, food, and seasonal variations."
-Anne Boyer, Garments Against Women
Set in a cold desolate gas/bus station in Fond du Lac, WI, two bus drivers, Monica and Jordie, take a smoke break at the bus depot gas station. An AFAB nonbinary transgender character Butch enters and has a one night stand with Monica.
My design for this show portrays clothes depicted as snow with embedded props from the characters lives. In this production, the characters assembled scenes by taking props from the clothes piles of snow. I choose clothing and items from the character's lives to create a visual language to communicate what is important to each character's identity.
