Haven
The Outer Loop | Raven Theatre

Haven is a new work play part of the Inner Eneso Series an all-female circle of artistic decision-making with the mission of shifting the arts community toward balance. Come on in and take a seat in Shawna's scrappy neighborhood hair salon, located on a rapidly gentrifying street and hanging on by a thread... amidst the fall of Roe v. Wade.
​
For me, the salon itself is the main character in and making it feel like a well loved but alive was paramount. Because the show was a workshop focusing on the script I wanted to express the world with simple elements that expressed the world and allowed the script to shine through. I did this through expressing the space primarily through a floor paint that meticulously expressed the small narrow space of many small salons.
