Understanding the Client: From the very beginning, it was clear that Rush Theatre Company was an organization fueled by passion and creativity. They possessed a deep commitment to delivering exceptional theatrical experiences and providing a platform for emerging talent to shine. Our initial meetings with the company’s  team allowed us to gain insights into their artistic vision, goals, and target audience, which laid the foundation for our design approach.

Design Concept: To capture the essence of Rush Theatre Company’s dynamic performances, we aimed to create a visually striking website that would transport visitors into the world of theatre. Our design revolved around an integration of classic theatrical elements and modern web design aesthetics. 

By combining bold imagery, a colour pallete chosen by the client, elegant typography, and subtle animations, we sought to evoke a sense of drama, excitement, and anticipation.

Results and Impact: Since the launch of the new website, Rush Theatre Company has experienced a significant increase in online traffic and user engagement. The visually captivating design have contributed to a higher conversion rate in ticket sales.
