Project: Essex on Stage

The “Essex on Stage” event, produced by Matthew Schmolle Productions (MSP) in collaboration with Queens Theatre Hornchurch, is a two-week festival celebrating emerging writers at The Bush Theatre. This vibrant festival brings together local talent from Essex and showcases fresh, exciting voices in theatre. It serves as a platform for these writers to present their work in front of an engaged audience, promoting diverse storytelling and highlighting new perspectives. “Essex on Stage” has become a key event for spotlighting local artistic innovation and fostering connections between the theatre community and Essex-based creatives …

I was tasked with developing a flexible brand that embodies the vibrant spirit and creativity of Essex. The aim was to capture the region’s bold, artistic energy and its unique blend of brightness, chaos, and boundless creativity. The brand needed to reflect the area’s dynamic cultural scene, incorporating its rich history, contemporary art, and the playful unpredictability that defines Essex’s identity.
