Artist Kenneth Rowell admired the English stage designers whose work he saw when Ballet Rambert toured the country between 1947 and 1949. Rowell made his first designs for dance for the Ballet Rambert production of Winter Night, which premiered in Melbourne on 19 November 1948. Rowell went on to become one of Australia’s most respected stage designers.
