Abstract
This thesis describes the analysis, design, and implementation of University of Arkansas’ production of The Diary of Anne Frank. The entire process is explored and analyzed with a specific focus on the challenges the production staff faced along with creative victories that we shared when creating this production. This document comments on and explores how the facts of the story and principal location of The Diary of Anne Frank influenced our more abstracted world of the play.
This thesis includes the essential design documents and support materials used in the creation of the scenic design of The Diary of Anne Frank. This includes: research images, early sketches, ground plans, renderings, paint elevations, and production photos.
