About
Sadra Tehrani is an Iranian-born Set and Production Designer based in New York City. His past design and film work has been featured in the New York Times, Broadway World, TimeOut NY and awarded in various national and international festivals. He’s intrigued by stories that explore concepts of belonging and alienation, and characters who are inconspicuous outliers. With a Masters in Architecture from Penn State University, he deeply appreciates a well thought-out construction detail. Space and Sound are the main drivers in his approach to design, and his ultimate joy is experiencing the synergy between a film’s production design and its score.
Sadra is currently working on Hamlet Hail to the Thief; A frenetic adaptation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet haunted by Radiohead’s Hail to the Thief, opening in the UK at the Manchester Factory International in May, and at the Royal Shakespeare Company in June 2025. He is a scenographer and co-designer working alongside Christine Jones and Brett Banakis as part of AMP Scenography.
