2017 - Sabrina Reed, Dramaturgy Through Design
The inaugural recipient of the Frances Starr Todd Fellowship, Sabrina Reed, came to us from Scottsdale, Arizona. Sabrina is a multi-disciplinary artist, with a background in set design, props, lighting, and scenic painting, Sabrina works with the Student Workforce and Training (SWAT) Team at Scottsdale Community College, and is a recipient of the Kennedy Center/American College Theater Festival – Region 8 Award for an unrealized set design.
Sabrina's renderings, below, came out of her discussions with the four playwrights working toward staged readings. The goal of these "virtual design meetings" is to allow the playwright to explore the physical world of the play.
