Yung-Hung Sung’s set design transforms the intimate space into multiple playing areas across which the layered, compelling, and ultimately liberating story unfolds."

Each area is thoughtfully curated, and will become an important part of the performance to follow. The design here is quite smart, converting an office into the playing space. Transforming a reception desk into the writers’ workspace, a closet into an exhibit, and another closet into the boudoir was absolutely genius. Whatever work took place in this space in its previous incarnation could be nowhere near as clever."
