About
TYLER HERALD (he/him/his) is a New York-based scenic, environmental, and production designer originally from the Midwest. He gravitates towards new and devised work and is interested in stories that ask audiences to question themselves, confront hard political and social realities, and inspire a deeper reflection on humanity. When confronted with the canon, he seeks to find new meanings and provoke discussions that challenge the conversation.
Tyler finds joy in the collaborative process of storytelling and thrives in helping to construct memories and experiences with his fellow collaborators.
Previous collaborators include: City Lyric Opera, Opera Idaho, Bristol Riverside Theatre, Theatre C, Teatro Ciego, Theatre Row, Glimmerglass Festival, Korins Studio, Neil Patel, Adam Koch Associates, among others.
