Paul Bunyan

 

As a work placement module I worked on Welsh National Youth Opera’s production of Paul Bunyan, celebrating the centenary of composer Benjamin Britten. I cut and constructed two waistcoats for the chorus, sourced and distressed the character Chef Ben, alongside sourcing and distressing a total of 350 for the chorus characters; old trees and lumberjacks. This production won a Royal Philharmonic Society Award for the Opera and Music Theatre. It was also nominated for a Sky Arts Award and a Wales Theatre Critics Choice Award.
