My Stage Ideals

-I would love to do something related to Shakespeare's Globe theatre in London. I myself have never visited this theatre but as I have a love of Shakespeare's plays it would like going on a pilgrimage to go there. I have seen many of the photo's from their production and I admire the fact that still put on many plays in full Elizabethan/Shakespearean costume. In the constantly growing world of modern theatre and minimalist stage design and with my love of history their approach catches my eye. As I truly hope that this form of theatre does not disappear with time I would love to be able to make promotional material for them. Another interesting area is their merchandise and other such products. Connected to the Theatre is also a shop where they sell all sorts of things including a range of products such as mugs, canvas bags and t-shirts. What I noticed was that these products most certainly do not represent the general image of the theatre but neither do they represent the rich atmosphere of the plays. To find a different approach for these products would truly bring me great joy.

-Another ideal situation would to have Dave McKean as a stage leader. He is my ultimate hero on the art/illustration scene and it would be an honour to have him guide me in my work. At the same time it would be absolutely terrifying but would potentially also be a good confidence boost.

-For a long time one of my dreams has been to work for the BBC. With the ever increasing trash on TV which is also the reason why at home we no longer have TV but purely purchase DVDs I admire the BBC. Although they have their moments of dull daytime television they still produce many programmes of quality. They also have a wide range of Fantasy and Science Fiction programmes such as Doctor Who, Merlin and Being Human created with great care compared to other television stations. To work amongst these people would be truly amazing and a dream come true, whether in a stage period or in the future (as they have a training programme in different fields).

-To go along with all above I would love to go to London to meet interesting people and finally go to the Globe Theatre!
