About
DAP Studio paint fine quality backdrops for the UK stage. We also paint three dimensional scenery and props and work with interior designers architects and fine artists on mural and installation projects.
We have painted scenery and cloths for some of the UK's leading theatre designers including Anthony Ward, Hildegard Bechtler, Jonathan Fensom, Es Devlin, Robert Howell and Robert Jones. We've painted work for Sadlers Wells, Shakespeare's Globe, The Royal Court, The Donmar Warehouse, English National Opera as well as many West End, regional and touring productions.
For the last eleven years we have also run short courses in Scenic Art and Scenic Painting, teaching people interested in developing a career in scenery painting. It's proved a useful route into the industry for many of our students. As a working scenic art studio we are unique in offering a work based learning environment rather than a college or university.
Courses cover all aspects of the work of a scenic artist and focus on finding work and getting started in the industry.
