1 13 Song #1 - 9, Aeneas enter, whole cast sing joyfully in palace
Golden look with royal reds and purples, btight happy mood
2 14 Act 2 Scene 1 Witches Cave, Song #7 - 8 large witches cast
Dark, empty feeling place with many shadows, dark un seen faces and features.
3 14 Act 2 Scene 2 The Grove Songs #9 - 12 Open field feel, ligther, lush green openes, with an air of happines from the hunt, but the looming of an aproacing storm.
4 16 Act 3 the interior of Dido's chamber abord ship Song #13 & 14 the influence of the witches
A Small chamber abord ship. Somewhat dark from the storm and the space. This can be played in front of the main act.
5 17 Act 3 the interior of the place as she turns away Aeneas Song #15.
Golden look with royal reds and purples, but a much more dampened mood, as the distain Dido has is unfurled.
6 18 Act 3 the interior of Dido's Grave chamber as she chooses to die.
A blank grey cold look as the choice of death is made over love. A feeling of emptiness and unresolved loss.
When designing…. Take your time! If you think it looks good, then it
looks good! We can always go back if the
director doesn’t like something!
