Sophie Jump

Tell Them That I Am Young and Beautiful (2011)

Directed by Marcello Magni at the Arcola Theatre.

Starring: Kathryn Hunter, Patrice Naiambana, Marcello Magni and David Bartholomew Soroczynski

British Theatre Guide review: 'Very simply staged on a sandy looking floor swirled with yellow ochre; the set by Sophie Jump is little more than a group of bamboo poles against a pale washed wall. They can be rearranged by the actors to suggest forest or doorway, cowshed or cage, or tipped sideways by the violence of a storm and take beautifully to Alex Wardle's lighting, as do the colourful costumes that allow the actors to slip easily from continent to continent and one character to another whether on a Metro platform or a famine-ravaged desert'.
