PHANTOM OF THE OPERA
Phantom of the Opera at The Leicester Curve Theatre, 2020. Designed by Cameron Mackintosh and painted at RN Scenic Studio. The cloth, which dropped in the interval was a interpretation of The Palais Garnier Opéra national de Paris fire curtain. We painted onto black velvet and Annie Hargreaves sprayed all the folds and I painted the gold detail with a team of other painters with printing inks and binder. I painted a great deal of the central piece as well as other areas. See the progress of the cloth below and me standing on the cloth to give a sense of scale and the trompe l'oeil effect of the cloth. This was a dream cloth to work on.
