Patrick Marber's 'Closer" @ Brisbane Arts Theatre



Recently I did my first set design for a play; 'closer' at BAT.
Really great experience. I really recommend working with the people at BAT, really inspiring atmosphere when working with volunteers.

Here is a CAD image of my intention:

Unfortunately I'm not used to working with panels of 1 foot so the final product turned out a bit
out of proportion.
Also they had to ditch my main idea of a fold-out bed ( the middle white block). We built if and it weighed a tonne.
So here is the finished product:
And the lighting guy Jeff was fantastic! ...



The blue in the one above moves like water! Really looked great!

All in all the play got pretty bad reviews, but what does a under-graduate journalist from Brisbane know.
Anyway, thanks to my friend Peter Norton (who played Dan) for giving the opportunity to get involved, (and also for giving me my first mattress when i left home 7 years ago! :))
Also to the Director John Boyce the Director.. for everything I guess.
And Brisbane actress Izabela Wasilewska is worth mentioning ... just because she's great... she played Anna.
