Footnotes

Dewynters is a prominent design and marketing agency, and a frequent collaborator with Sir Michael Codron on numerous theatrical productions from the 1990's onwards. First night gifts from the team to Codron often parodied their own designs for each play, incorporating Codron's name into the design. Dewynters have produced iconic designs across the West End, including that of young Cosette for Les Misérables.
