The Playground, and U.K Tour

This new adaptation of the classic Regency story was contemporary and accessible. My design had a timeless feel, with nods to Grecian pillars and marble paint effects, but with a modern bold wave set piece curling away from the floor towards the piano. This represented Anne’s strong connections with her past and her love. The musical elements, which were all played live by the five actor/musicians, were integral to this show and I wanted to reflect this in the design by making them part of the set.
