That final transition in the play "The Mountaintop" when the set splits and Bassett delivered that powerful monologue left me jaw dropped.

In the last revival of Hello Dolly when we changed from the rustic Yonkers feed store to the vibrant pastel palette of New York City for Put On Your Sunday Clothes. Santo Loquasto's scenic and costume design literally brought me to tears every time I saw it.

Druid did a production of "Sive" in Ireland about 10 years ago. At one point, a huge mirror hanging high above the stage tilts slightly to reveal Sive's body floating in a pool of water. I remember thinking at the time, it was one of the most thrilling pieces of staging I've ever seen and so simply done. The designer, Francis O'Connor, included a photo of the moment on his website which I've (hopefully) linked below

That was nothing short of glorious! I also got a bit choked up. I felt transported back in time to Broadway productions back in the day. That whole show was beautiful to look at.
