Center stage, Wellington—the black-and-white dog—lies motionless under a stark white overhead spotlight, a garden fork embedded in his body and oriented toward upstage. Surrounding him, ensemble members portraying the “Voices” circle the space in teal-blue sidelight, their partially shadowed forms contrasting the clinical isolation of the bright central special.

Christopher sits downstage center in a diagonal shaft of cool white light, while a deep indigo Cloud 15 gobo (Rosco 79065) washes the stage floor, creating a moody, atmospheric texture beneath him.

Christopher sits amid a miniature train set and model houses, shaped by soft, naturalistic light from a warm hanging practical behind him; slightly upstage, Ed remains partially shadowed in muted orange tones, reinforcing emotional distance.

The “Voices” traverse the stage beneath crisp blue overhead beams with Rosco Squares (77524) gobos, while Christopher moves among them in a contrasting warm followspot that isolates him from the patterned environment.
