FIRST BLUSH
Julia Noulin-Merat's simple set,
consisting of two easy chairs, a
small table, and a small
elevated counter with barstools
was very creatively and
impressively adapted for the
play's several important scene
changes by the striking use of
large rear sliding panels.

Craig : All the players are senior
acting majors at BU) enjoy a
cushy nest, whose walls and
screens, in Julia Noulin-Merat's
handsome set, appear to have
been painted
by Franz Kline .

Quicktake on FIRST BLUSH
The several scenes are defined
by ingenious sliding panels
which with the current light plot
give the stage hands a chance to
appear in a shadow show. The
backdrop is a black and white
abstract while the modern
furniture is sufficiently
nondescript to serve the unit set.
which starts as an apartment,
but must serve as an office, a
bar, etc. Downstage center is
occupied by a coffee table as per
usual.
