Designer (Set & Costume)
The design had to cater to three different shows, but from the start the directors and I agreed that it was important to unify the three pieces visually. I focused on elemental cohesion- a blurry mountain-like landscape covered all the walls of the theatre, while rubble, water and chalk formed the main ingredients for every piece, linking them together. There was a great emphasis on colour and texture- staying true to the earthy tones throughout. I wanted it to seem like although these stories were written by different people about different situations, they were within the same world.
