Behind the Seams, an Interview with Robert Jones
Description
Art, architecture and storytelling are among Rob's passions, and given his meticulous attention to detail, he particularly thrives on seeking out fresh design techniques to lend aliveness and vitality to his process. His repeat collaborators include Trevor Nunn, Gregory Doran, David McVicar and Josie Rourke, working at renowned venues such as the NT, the Donmar, the Metropolitan Opera, and the RSC, where he serves as an Associate Artist.
Rob and Jonathan chat fondly about their recent shared experience on Trevor Nunn’s production of 'Fiddler on the Roof' at the Menier/Playhouse Theatre. Rob’s beautifully-executed and poignant set designs were the perfect platform for Jonathan’s costumes and Tim Lutkin’s lighting, which together enhanced the vanished world of early 20th. century Jewish Russia that Rob had set out to conjure. The synchronicity and collaborative nature of this journey clearly made for a special experience for the team, cast and audience.
