Morgan Large

Designer

Biography

Morgan won the UK Theatre Award for Best Design for Wonderland at Nottingham Playhouse.

Morgan Large’s design is beautiful in its simplicity, relying on a few large props to carry the scene: a boat’s skeleton, split into three and joined together again, moves around the stage by the cast’s synchronised feet; Charon’s simple raft seemingly floats along the stage; a velvet chaise longue brings to mind Wilde’s opulent tastes
WhatsOnStage on The Invention of Love (Hampstead Theatre)

Morgan Large’s sets and costumes are richly detailed – that grimly decorative house reminded me of Catherine de Medici’s gloomy bedroom in the Chateau de Chenonceau
The Guardian on Sunset Boulevard (Opera Australia)

Watching the sisters in full flow, boogieing away in rainbow-sequinned habits, is sheer theatrical bliss
The Telegraph on Sister Act (Dominion Theatre)

Designer Morgan Large’s impressive composite set encompasses the action perfectly, while his costume designs reflect the gaudy, garish 1970s disco culture with glee
The Stage on Sister Act 

Morgan Large’s thrust designs … conjure up a jungle-gym auditorium that is enthralling and immersive
WhatsOnStage on Disney’s Newsies (Troubadour Theatre)
