Design for Stage
Randy Wong-Westbrooke (they/them/their)
is an award-nominated scenic designer originally from Berkeley, California, specifically on the ancestral and unceded land of the Chochenyo-speaking Ohlone people. Driven by their mixed-Asian, trans, and non-binary identities, they seek opportunities to work with diverse creative teams to tell radical, provocative, and intersectional stories that question and celebrate our collective histories. They’re looking to build community to create spaces for the breaking apart and subsequent expansion of the mind, heart, and body, and discovering ways that gathering, viscera, and experimentation can lead to healing connections.
They have designed sets for Marin Theatre Company, TheatreFIRST, Crowded Fire Theater, Ferocious Lotus, American Conservatory Theater’s M.F.A. Program, Shotgun Players, SF Playhouse’s Sandbox, New Conservatory Theater Company, Custom Made Theatre, Cutting Ball Theater, Los Altos Stage Company, Palo Alto Players, Contra Costa Civic Theater, as well as many other new and independent projects.
Their additional credits include production designer for the short film The Truer History of the Chan Family, music videos for Oakland-based music group Tune-Yards, and they designed installations and murals for the lobbies of the Lighthouse Immersive Immersive Van Gogh Exhibition all around the country.
They have been a scenic art assistant with Oregon Shakespeare Festival's F.A.I.R. Program and a mentee in the USITT Gateway Program. B.F.A. Ithaca College. This June they will graduate with an M.F.A. in Set Design from the UCLA School of Theater, Film, and Television.
