CAVITY NEEDS A SET DESIGNER

Cavity
19:00, Tue 27th – Sat 31st May 2025 at Corpus Playroom
Easter Week 4

We need a set designer  to transform the Corpus Playroom into the Abney homestead – where the walls sweat scripture and every floorboard creaks with buried secrets. Both furniture and set props will be provided by ADC inventory. I would love you to take full creative control of the space and bring this play to life!

    Some ideas:

    Architectural Oppression: Design a tilted, asymmetrical space that feels both chapel and coffin (suggested elements: crooked porch, wallpaper peeling like burnt skin)
    Environmental Storytelling: Embed clues about the family's decay (water stains forming demonic shapes, children's growth marks on doorframes)
    Practical Cruelty: Create acting obstacles that mirror the text (a table that forces actors into uncomfortable proximity, a "pulpit" that isolates Beau)
    Resourceful Horror: Use found materials to suggest both poverty and fanaticism.

    We'd love to hear from you! Send us an email telling us:

    Which role(s) excite you most

    Any relevant experience (don't worry if this is your first time - passion trumps CVs!)

    Your availability over the coming weeks

    No formal applications - just bring your ideas and enthusiasm. Can't wait to create something unforgettable together!

    Email: [your email address]
    Subject line: "Cavity Design Team - [Your Name]"

    I will also send over the script if you would like some inspiration or a moodboard!


    Contact Director - ff363@cam.ac.uk before 9th May 2025 01:00 for more details.
