Alberta Theatre Projects’ latest performance transforms the stage into a rustic cabin setting complete with wooden walls, furniture and a fireplace.
The eerie set design is for Evil Dead: The Musical, which runs until Nov. 14 at the Martha Cohen Theatre.
Moody lighting consisting of blue, red and green, changes the atmosphere throughout the performance, adding to the visual experience.
Performers take stage in scenes featuring intriguing costumes, dramatic lighting and theatrical effects.
From the set design to the performers bringing the story to life, the production gives audiences a closer look at the work behind live theatre.
