Ella CREATON

This design centres the play in a familiar, realistic, seemingly ordinary space; but within it, extraordinary things take place.

Eurydice asks us to imagine what the afterlife might be like.

I think it might be like a pub after closing time; when the music has stopped and everyone else has gone home. In the silence, the half-finished drinks and lingering cigarette smoke are the only signs of life having been there.
...

In 1975, Michael Creaton passed away at the age of 40. Behind him, he left a wife, three daughters, a son and a pub.

This design is inspired by The White Swan in Birmingham, England.
