Has the experience impacted my work back at uni?
• I have always had a strong interest in costume and set design.
• Before I started at CSAD, I had a space at the Royal Welsh Collage for set designs, but changed my
mind last minute to textiles.
• I have grown a real interest in the paper and stationery area whist at CSAD
• Marigolds hasn’t changed my mind about the paper and stationery area
• Has given me a huge insight into the calibre of work that goes on there and a potential are of work
for the future.

How did I feel about the experience after four weeks?
• Having had such a varied work load; from sorting stock to mending costumes, I’ve really
found it interesting seeing all angles of the business.
• I really like seeing the different productions that are going on, such the Theatr Genedlaethol
Cymru’s production of Macbeth in Caerphilly castle.
