Stage Crew

 

Stage Crew - sketch by douglas brent smith, 1980

From journal #16, on the cutting edge, 1980.

This appears to be a set design, possibly for The Great Brain Robbery, but I'm not certain since at the time I had been in rehearsal for and developing "en grade" at the Playwright's Center on Kinzie Street in Chicago. It did not get any farther than a staged reading, which was impacted by a massive snow storm so our audience was only four or five people. 

This could also be just a random drawing. It is smeared from water damage caused by the fire on Elm Street at Dorinda's rented home in Lewisville, CO in 2008.
