Theater Latté Da mourns the passing of scenic designer Kate Sutton Johnson, whose remarkable talent, vision, and kind, collaborative spirit helped bring some of our most memorable productions to life. Kate's singular work was seen on our stage in SWEENEY TODD, INTO THE WOODS, CABARET, BERNARDA ALBA, SIX DEGREES OF SEPARATION and PARADE, and on other stages large and small around the Twin Cities and across the country. Our hearts are with Kate's husband Grant, her family, friends, colleagues, and all who knew and loved her.
