SET PAINTING FOR A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD (2025)

I painted roughly 125 square feet of set elements for Rockville Musical Theatre’s summer production, A Year with Frog and Toad (dir. Chad Rabago), acrylic on cardboard. This was my first time set painting for a theatrical production!

“Set pieces (especially the clothes rack), and beautiful set painting by Caroline Dinh created scenes from the middle of a pond to sledding down a snowy hill. The set design elements give the audience so much to look at, one could see it twice and still catch things that were missed the first time.” Danielle Comer via MD Theatre Guide

“The seasonal transitions were also cleverly handled. Scenic elements painted by Caroline Dinh featured cardboard boxes with different seasons on each side, rotated by the cast to mark time passing.” Lucille Blumberg via TheatreBloom
