= Theatre Book Macbeth =
Theatre Book - Macbeth (2014) was an interactive pop-up book that brought 'the Scottish play' to life with miniature projection mapping. The multi media book featured six pop-up pages designed like sets on a stage, with actors projected onto the paper scenery and the audience could turn the pages to drive the story forward. The project was co-created with the Royal Shakespeare Company.
=Howl's Moving Castle=
For Christmas 2011, Davy and Kristin McGuire designed and directed a stage adaptation of Howl's Moving Castle at the Southwark Playhouse, who also commissioned the project. The production involved actors interacting with live video projections onto a set that replicated a paper pop-up castle. Howl's Moving Castle was adapted for the stage by Mike Sizemore and featured an original score by Fyfe Dangerfield. The cast included Stephen Fry as narrator Daniel Ings as Howl, Susan Sheridan as old Sophie, James Wilkes as Calcifer and Kristin played the part of young Sophie and the Witch of the Waste.
