When theatregoers see a set designed by Lehigh associate professor of theatre Will Lowry, they’re seeing the result of a creative journey. 

“What I think is unique about my process as a designer is that I often like to do multiple sketches of vastly different approaches,” says Lowry. “I may bring six to 12 different designs to the table. In sketching different ideas, I don’t try to solve every problem.”

Considering multiple scenic designs encourages collaboration among the play’s creative team, inviting input from the director and the lighting and costume designers. Such collaboration in creating the world of the play is integral in theatre.
