Liverpool Everyman Repertory Company 2018

Role/Title: Set and Costume Designer
Co-Set and Costume Designers: Jocelyn Meall
Year of Production Opening: 2018
Venue: Liverpool Everyman Theatre
The second rep season gave us the opportunity to build on what we had learnt from 2017, with the aim to improve the experience for the actor’s, audience and technical crew...

14 Actors. 4 Plays. 2 Directors.

Paint your Wagon: soil, water, wood, and fandango girls.

A Clockwork Orange: a sterile cubic climbing frame, with hatches shoots ultra-violet and ultra-violence.

Othello: Contemporary military with female lesbian lead.

The Big I Am: based on Ibsen’s Peer Gynt, from the North of England to Vegas to Dubai, as fast as a life flashing before your eyes…wheels, wheels and more wheels!

It was an extremely challenging program to try and run in repertory as opposed to stand-alone productions. The aesthetic of A Clockwork Orange couldn’t be further from Paint your Wagon compromises had to me made which was sometimes painful but necessary due to a significantly reduced budget and smaller turn around team.”
