One of our favourite regular projects. Theatrical marketing design for Plays in the Parks for the award-winning Theatre Space North East. Find out how we help TSNE tell timeless tales in the open air.
Don’t let anyone tell you that Sunderland’s cultural landscape is lacking. We’re sure multi-award winning Theatre Space North East would have something to say about that, wholly incorrect statement. The innovative theatre company is dedicated to taking theatre ‘outside’ of the theatre. It’s always a pleasure to be invited back to help tell the design part of these timeless tales.
From epic Shakespearean battles to delightfully silly madcap adventures for littler theatregoers, this is certainly a challenge we don’t take on lightly. We’ve been tasked with developing an overarching style for the whole season of ‘Plays in the Parks’ whilst simultaneously developing individual production treatments for each show. Working with Theatre Space’s creative team, we intertwine our design ideas into the overall look and feel of the show itself.
Now a firm fixture of the summer season in Sunderland, the plays now take in an even more imposing backdrop, as the team head further north to the historic Alnwick Castle. The designs themselves, therefore, have to adapt to both marketplaces with a huge array of assets being produced for delivery across channels, including Alnwick’s huge presence.
