I have a suggestion-make sure if you post photos (for future contributors)- include the name of set designer~and most importantly crop the photos.
Thanks!

The regional production of "The Importance of Being Earnest" at South Coast Repertory was beautiful.

The flats in the background changed during each intermission, and at the beginning of each act it would show the black silhouette and then a turn table would turn it around.

These pictures don't really capture the beauty of the sets at all, but they were all I can find.

Woah, some of those pictures are beautiful, thanks everyone.

I agree with both the "Sunday..." productions.

But really, Piazza, Piazza, Piazza.

Talk about breathtaking.
