Apollo Mark Weaver's set design uses pops of graffiti and war propaganda to instantly set the location, while the costumes by Jennifer Gillette perfectly depict the surreal, multi-war vibe. Michael Gilliam's lighting and the sound design and original music by Lindsay Jones deliver impressively throughout, with the combination of their contributions under Geoffrey Kent's superb fight direction delivering one of the best I've ever seen staged.
With its ambiguous ending, mix of genres, long length, and featuring over a dozen major characters, Troilus and Cressida is a tough play to get right. With an excellent cast, clear creative elements, and amazing fight direction, director Carolyn Howarth manages to pull off a fantastic production of the play for Utah Shakespeare Festival.
