When the twin towers came down in New York, I was working with The Wooster Group, just north of Canal St. I remember the eery silence the day after and the pall of yellowish smoke that hung south of Canal St. And everything was covered with a fine layer of gritty ash. "Griswold" is a black comedy about two undocumented Irishmen livng in an abandoned warehouse in New York, 4 months after 9/11, so it's giving me the opportunity to create a design incorporating elements that I actually remember. See my blog at http://sightlines-setdesign.

 "Griswold", by Arnold Fanning, is a Focus Theatre production directed by Joe Devlin, and it opens on Wednesday 13th of June at the Loose End, Civic Theatre Tallaght, running until 23rd June. In July it will transfer to The New Theatre in Temple Bar.
