Theatre faculty, students in Prague

Several Ohio State Department of Theatre faculty members and students are in Prague this week for the Prague Quadrennial 1999, the foremost exhibition of theater design in the world.

Ohio State was chosen to execute the design of the United State's entry in the international competition. The huge, interactive display celebrates theater set, costume and lighting design.
