The Old Rep Theatre Timeline

  • Maxene Julia

I was commissioned by the Old Rep to work on a historical timeline about the theatre. I produced over 100 illustrations for the project and had a lot of fun researching into the archives, looking at old photographs of famous actors in their early career in theatre. The Old Rep Theatre were granted £2,000 by The Sir Barry Jackson Trust as part of their ‘Our Old Rep’ project. This was part of an initiative to inspire future generations of young creatives by investigating the venue’s history. Below are some of my illustrations from the project
