Ellie Wintour

Designer

I'm a set & costume designer from London. Theatre Design marries a whole host of different interests, from story telling, to live performance and making. I love theatre that seamlessly weaves technology into performance without loosing its magic, and am passionate about sustainability and using found materials. Please get in touch if you'd like to hear more.
