Angela Weber Miller absolutely outdoes herself in transforming the theater space. She more or less abandons the proscenium, building out and to the sides, to create the docks of the Caribbean Island and the decks of Blood's ship. Downstage right and left, as well as upstage center, provide exits that allow the pirates to appear from and disappear to below decks.

Open spaces (that are hopefully well padded) allow for dramatic falls into the sea, and all of the "sails" double as screens for Erin Pleake's projections, which beautifully and seamlessly provide visual cues for the shift in scene.
