Wyrd Sisters

Recently I did a little illustrative project in the shape of a flyer for the upcoming production of Terry Pratchett's Wyrd Sisters at the Lace Market Theatre in Nottingham directed by Andrew Nash. I'm also getting the paintbrushes out to do some set painting which is great!

The production's design, by Mark James, is in a Steampunk style which is very exciting and it will definitely be a fun family show for the run up to Christmas! Show dates are on the flyer image below, and you can book tickets here.

I decided to do something unseasonal, so it would make me feel a bit warmer during this winter weather!

A Christmas Carol

To add to my artwork in the previous post, I thought I'd post a picture of the production to show the artwork as it was incorporated on the set. I also had fun with a little bit of painting and prop-making in the shape of those burgundy lampshades. New Perspective's production of A Christmas Carol continues to tour through December, see here for the full tour schedule, and definitely go along if you like the look of it!

And now for something Victorian...

It's been a shocking amount of time since my last post, due to being a little busier of late (hurrah!) so I'm posting something a little different this time.

After going to sit in on rehearsals for New Perspective Theatre Company's one-man production of A Christmas Carol a few weeks back, I ended up producing some Victorian magician/entertainer -style poster art for the set and foyers during the tour which you can see below. The artwork also appears in the play's programme in which I was very excited to see I was credited as Scenic Artist!

Working on this was a great experience and I also got to help out a bit with preparing the set and went along for the first day of the tour. It is a fantastic production, really getting you into the spirit of Christmas as the nights draw in and there's a chill in the air. So if you're anywhere near the East Midlands before mid-December, do catch it if you can!
