“Wulfie,” as everyone calls him, was in a t-shirt, covered with New York grime, pummeling the already mercilessly dented trashcans.
“It’s hard to give something the feeling of life when it was made only a few months ago. So I used that stick to hit the scenery, dent the corners, round the edges, leave scuff marks.” In other words, make the set look as authentic as the fire escapes and trash cans in that very alley outside the stage door.
“I look at it this way: if you are going to put something on the set, make sure it matters.”
This attention to detail has made Boritt one of the most sought-after designers in New York. Every element Boritt brings to the stage, no matter how large or small, contributes to the emotion of the story.
