Levi Kiess’ scenic design for Dayton Theatre Lab’s production of Misery (2023)
Concept Design
Misery, based on the novel by Stephen King, follows successful romance novelist Paul Sheldon, who is rescued from a car crash by his “number one fan,” Annie Wilkes, and wakes up captive in her secluded home. The design accommodated audience viewing on three sides of the stage, all while fleshing out the house as a full entity.
