Eve Adamson |
In honor of her life and the care with which she supported our work, Phoenix Theatre Ensemble has established the Eve Adamson Theatre Legacy Fund to support the elements of production design— lights, sound, costumes, and sets—that Eve used so beautifully to create what Cocteau called, and Eve championed, "the poetry of theatre."
Eve's artistic aesthetic and integrity greatly influenced those of us who grew up in the house that Eve built, and her unique vision has become our artistic compass.
To launch this fund, the estate of Eve Adamson has graciously designated a portion of Eve's ceramic sculpture and vessels to be sold for the establishment and benefit of The Eve Adamson Theatre Legacy Fund. It is the wish of her estate and her theatre family that Eve's work and name live on.
Phoenix Theatre Ensemble is greatly honored to be beneficiaries and guardians of the Fund. We have promised to keep Eve's name and artistic vision alive and moving forward into the future.
The Eve Adamson Theatre Legacy Fund will support the perpetuation of design aesthetics, which exemplified Eve's work in the theatre.
In addition, beginning in 2008, The Eve Adamson Theatre Legacy Fund will begin awarding an Eve Adamson Theatre Legacy Award each year to a selected lighting designer. Eve was herself a noted lighting designer, and we feel she would be proud to grant such an award to this vital and often overlooked member of the artistic collaboration. Eve's ceramic sculpture and vessels will be available to purchase during our performances and will soon be available for purchase on the Phoenix Theatre Ensemble website. One hundred percent of all proceeds benefit the Eve Adamson Theatre Legacy Fund.
