Abstract: The purpose of this thesis is to present in three parts the visual designs and technical production of William Gibson's A Cry of Players. The thesis is divided into three parts: (1) Chapter I, the playwright, the play, and the design approach, (2) Chapter II, the illustrated production record, and (3) Chapter III, a post-production analysis. Chapter I deals with the historical and stylistic considerations influencing the design concept and a description of the design approach to setting, costumes, properties, and lighting. Chapter II contains the renderings, working drawings, photographs, and plots for sets, costumes, properties, and lighting. Chapter III discusses the final production and the weaknesses of each technical area as a part of the total visual design.
