Designers work closely with the wardrobe department to create the final look of the show.

The production is designed to be highly stylised, conceiving its own iconography whilst remaining true to the spirit of Burgess’ s text. Set against a bleak industrial landscape and accompanied by a specially composed urban soundtrack from Graham Sutherland, Burgess’s protagonists will combine Shakespearian romanticism with a punk and new wave twist.
WARDROBE DEPARTMENT
An amazing team led by Wardrobe Supervisor Elaine Coyle, create the costumes designed by Jason. This also involves costume fittings and
logistical planning for costume changes backstage.
