Behind the Scenes
Behind the Scenes
Quantum Voyages was created by Smitha Vishveshwara and Latrelle Bright by combining scientific knowledge and the beauty of theater.
Rehearsals
Rehearsals began in booked rooms at Loomis Laboratory of Physics...
...and expanded to The Urbana Dance Company in downtown Urbana.
Many of the students involved in Quantum Voyages are study physics. Some aspects of Quantum Voyages include a more abstract, biological application of the science, so students visited the University of Illinois Biomedical Imaging Center to research these aspects of the production.
There was plenty of inspiration for the props and light projections!
Costumes
There were many costuming and prop challenges overcome throughout the development of this production.
Props
Our costuming and prop-making experts, Cassie Zhao and Lilla Szini, as well as the energy of the cast, made each character come to life.
What is a play without good music?
Ash Busse produced original music
for Quantum Voyages.
Once all of our components were complete, our dress rehearsal was performed at the iHotel at the University of Illinois!
