The Physicists


I did a couple of days work at Rocket, whilst The Physicists set was being built. The whole thing was white, which required very careful painting. My task mainly was drainpipe sanding, but I did get to do a bit of painting!

Hay Fever


I did a couple of days work for Rocket Scenery, painting lots of doors for Hay Fever at the Noel Coward theatre.

Beauty and the Beast

From last year's panto in Harrogate, where I worked as wardrobe assistant for a month.

There was lots of popper and patch stitching involved, and the costumes (and set) did look truly fantastic.

Lion in Winter


Here was my first bit of work experience for Rocket Scenery, assisting with scenic painting. Lots of stone was painted, textured, re-painted, re-textured... But it does look rather stunning in the end!

Making Carnival Peacock


As well as making a skeleton as a group, we also developed a large peacock puppet as a smaller group.
Made from fused, recycled carrier bags, we wanted to highlight issues surrounding sustainability.








Making Carnival Skeleton



For this group project, we made a giant skeleton puppet for one to wear, for carnival. Made from Plastazote that could be moulded and formed, it was definitely a feat of engineering!
