"Archy and Mehitabel" - The Electric Theatre, Guildford
Director: Angela Hardcastle
DESIGNED BY HELEN STEWART

I placed the world very much through the confused eyes of a cockroach where the trashy alleyway that surrounds him is incongruous with the poetry aching to be unleashed from his soul. The set was a insight in the world of Archy where his poems, art, and the newspaper he appears in define him as much as the grime and struggles of city life, where five metre windows can dwarf two metre-tall apartment blocks.
