ORLANDO / BY SARA RUHL
CONSTELLATION THEATRE COMPANY, 2023
The set, designed by Sarah Beth Hall, is a beautiful Alice in Wonderland–esque display with flowery walls, a large cabinet that serves often as a doorway or a portal from the afterlife, numerous clocks set to different times, with vibrant colors, white columns, and an abundance of picture frames: standing and smaller portable portrait size. The result is a visually stimulating set that matches the tone of the production’s #LoveSexTimeTravel theme….Constellation Theatre Company’s production of Orlando is a visually delicious and humorous production prime for enjoyment.

The play also captures the romance and scope of the novel, as well as the ripe sexuality in the tale of Orlando (Mary Myers), whose journey toward their true self spans continents and centuries. Time for Orlando can’t be measured just by the clocks that line the flower petal-covered walls of Sarah Beth Hall’s dreamy, lavender salon and boudoir set.
