Playbill: Reflection is an important aspect of Clint Ramos’ design work. It’s an ethos that plays out in both his scenic design for Slave Play and costume designs for The Rose Tattoo. As it happens, both productions looked back at a different time through a contemporary lens—a theme to which Ramos contributed with his work.

I found this article to be interesting. He is so innovative and is getting more and more work as a set and costume designer on broadway which is very exciting. I have seen tons of pictures of his set for Slave Play on Broadway. I think it was so interesting that it came from a solution of not being in the round. I think that this was very interesting choice and definitely changes how the play is seen. I saw a photo on instagram the other day actually and it was of the audience and you could see the projection of the antebellum house on the mezzanine level. I also really liked to hear about his process on the Rose Tattoo. I think something really important that he emphasized was transformation of a character through a person's clothing. It was very interesting to hear how he coordinated all the different characters using the over arching themes of immigration and identity.- Evan Riley
