I was tasked with finding references for the stage in the magician piece. I looked at Victorian stages as i love the aesthetic of victorian theatre. The lush red velvet curtains and wooden stage. This also pays homage to Punch and Judy which i believe ties in with the themes of the piece. we tried to replicate this in the final production . The character of the magician i also thought of as being much like a Victorian magician. Over zealous, spoke in a traditional RSC hammy Shakespearian accent. He should be full of the showmanship of Victorian theatre, especially the bow.
bow.
