And I found David Rockwell's build-a-set scenic design so gray and grim.
And to be fair, it's Lapine's design really - the show has always been about a "modular" set to him, and I think his designers have had to just deal with that dictate. But from what I remember of the 1990's version, it was done more attractively that time.
(Though, does anyone remember the awkward "tantrum" moment during the Chess Game where Marvin's throwing Whizzer out had a lot more to do with angrily rearranging the rolling furniture, lol? I though the moment with the suitcase this time around was much more effective.) |
