Scenic designer Tanya Orellana creates performance spaces for theatre, dance, opera, and puppetry. Originally from San Francisco, she is a core member of the award-winning ensemble Campo Santo (Spanish for “sacred ground”), an organization committed to developing new American theatre and nurturing diverse new audiences. As an organizing member of La Gente: The Latinx Theatre Design Network, Orellana seeks to combine design and civic practice to dismantle oppressive practices in the field of theatre.
Mexican costume designer Isabel Rubio works in theatre, dance, film, and television, bringing a rich visual vocabulary to her work. Her work has been featured internationally at Russia’s historic Mariinsky Theatre of Opera and Ballet in Saint Petersburgh, theStanislavsky Theatre in Moscow, and México’s Morelia International Film Festival in Morelia, Michoacán, to name a few. Rubio’s credits include a fellowship in Costume Design at the Virginia Museum of Fine Art and an exhibit at the Quadrennial of Performance Design and Space in Prague.
