ABOUT

Lisa is delighted to work with the ever inspiring, talented, and generous Wisconsin theatre community! Home is where the heart sings. A Milwaukee based scenic designer, Lisa’s design work of particular joy includes past projects with Milwaukee Opera Theatre, In Tandem, Renaissance Theaterworks, Milwaukee Shakespeare, Milwaukee Chamber Theater, Milwaukee Rep, Florentine Opera, First Stage, Skylight Music Theatre, and AFT/Northern Sky. In addition to her design work, she logs more than three decades in the pursuit of managing prop shops and building props for the full spectrum of work in the performing arts. Lisa currently spends off time serving as co-secretary to the Wisconsin Puppetry Guild, engaging in flights of imagination and fancy, and elevating puppetry arts to effect transformation in public education and storytelling. She is also proudly affiliated with the national professional organization The Society for Prop Artists & Managers.

And Lisa wrote a book! With coauthor Sandra Strawn, THE PROPERTIES DIRECTOR'S TOOLKIT: MANAGING A PROP SHOP FOR THEATRE is now available on Amazon.  

Thank you for supporting live local theatre!
