Pippin Diversionary Theatre Music and Lyrics by Stephen Schwartz Book by Roger O. Hirson James Vasquez - director Shirley Pierson - costume design Sean Fanning - scenic design Luke Olson - lighting design Kevin Anthenill - sound design Reviews: "Along with being someone who actually understands "deconstruction", Shirley Pierson's costumes do just that. Each one's a melange of conflicting signs: Charlemagne, for example, wears a medal-laced General Patton coat, Levis with a yellow Confederate stripe down the side, and a medieval crown - and plays a video game." Jeff Smith / SAN DIEGO READER "Shirley Pierson's innovative costumes tie in closely with Fanning's scenery, a fascinating blend of classic Crusades-style armor and modern pieces fashioned from trash, household items, leather and cloth." Pam Kragen / SAN DIEGO UNION TRIBUNE "... the technical fascination with media imagery and shameless consumerism is carried over into Shirley Pierson’s deconstructed costume designs. Her punk-rock style gives an eclectic look to the characters (with plenty of leather, distressed denim, and ripped, recycled fabrics to inhabit a small landfill) and she manages to insert some truly clever creations into her design, such as armor plates made of beer boxes and a king’s cape made of faux fur and an American flag." Dr. Donnie Matsuda / San Diego Drama King

He only produced about 140 paintings in his relatively short life but they are real gems, displaying a wonderfully sophisticated and more mature form of naivete. He…
