UW–Madison’s Megan Reilly, an assistant professor in the School of Education’s Department of Theatre and Drama, has been nominated for an award for production design by the B. Iden Payne Awards Council, which honors excellence in theatrical performance, production, and design in the Austin, Texas area.
Reilly was nominated for an Outstanding Media Design award for “Walden (remix),” produced by the Mary Moody Northen Theatre at St. Edward’s University. The production was written and directed by KJ Sanchez.
In a review of the play, Broadway World noted that Reilly’s lighting and media design “inject pockets of warmth into the sterile surroundings,” while Austin Live Theatre wrote that “the shadows left overhead by Megan Reilly’s lighting design reinforce the feeling of H’s confinement without becoming claustrophobic.”
