Columbian artist Maria Berrio designs a unique Cinderella for Miami Childrens Theater

Maria Berrio is quiet, sweet, somewhat shy and eternally modest. But this nationally recognized artist, born in Bogota and now residing New York City, creates art that packs a wallop. Maria's artwork is both modern and eerily mythological, a fancy way of saying timeless. Miami Childrens Theater is extremely fortunate to have an artist of this stature design and paint the scenic art for our Cinderella. Maria's vision is a huge reason to check out our version of Cinderella!





A look at Norwegian set designer Orf Gervananski

Sometimes MCT is accused of going over the top on it's sets - a reputation we gladly accept!  Along those lines, we are not digging this guy - internationally known set designer Orf Gervanski. Mr. Gervanski  recieves up to $100,000 for his set designs. The so-called "King of Minimualism", Mr. Gervanski was just knighted in his native Norway. Judge for yourself:


My Fair Lady set (2002) Royal Albert Hall, London


Annie Get Your Gun Revival (2007) The Beaumont-Carlisle in New York City

                                             
                            West Side Story (2009) The National Australian Theater, Sydney


Finian's Rainbow (2001) Radio City Music Hall, New York City
