Designing

Particularly if you're into visual aspects of theatre, it's tempting to come up with natty ideas for design and roll with them when they aren't really justified by the text.

I think that all aspects of the design should stem (in an ideal world) from your interpretation of the play and, more importantly, from what the author gives you.

It sounds pretty obvious but I'll try and give an example over the next few days.
