"The costumes and an all-white fabric floor were a canvas (literally) for the evanescent, inspired lighting and video design of Finnish theater artist Joonas Tikkanen. His stunning universe of visual, emotive effects ranged from anxiety-producing patterns reminiscent of early black-and-white television to sweeping, colorful earth-space vistas and bowls of glass set in circles of dancing light."

"Joonas Tikkanen’s inventive lighting and video projections of stark Finnish landscapes onto Marley flooring were captivating. His design includes kinetic light tubes which form a moving set piece with which the chorus and dancers play and dance.
