“… The reason that we do theatre is to be able to see something different and see something differently.” – Mimi Lien
“… She is creative. She is imaginative. She is thoughtful. She collaborates.”
– John Wolf, Chair of Theatre and Dance at Wayne State University
It is always my goal to tell the story as truthfully and creatively as possible, inviting the audience into another life.
I strive to capture the essence of the emotion of the play within each of my designs, expressing it evocatively while aspiring to create a world truly unique to the characters that inhabit it. I enjoy working with color and strive to use it in interesting and effective ways within my scenery. These sets are some of my most recent pieces for production.
