Roger Furse (1903-1972) was one of the leading British theatre designers of the mid 20th century. He studied at the Slade School of Art and in Paris, but abandoned painting for theatre design in the 1930s, becoming well known for his settings and costumes for plays, ballets and films.
Furse was particularly associated with the work of Laurence Olivier, for whom he designed the films of Henry V , Hamlet , Richard III and The Prince and the Showgirl , and he frequently worked for the Old Vic Theatre, designing Shakespeare productions, which starred some of the great names of British theatre.
Roger Furse won the 1948 Academy Award for Best Costume Design for a Black and White Film for his designs for Hamlet. This was the first year that an award had been made for costume design and the category was divided into two,with one award been given for a black and white film and one for colour.
Ivanhoe's Waldemar Fitzurse is Prince John's primary counselor during his rebellion against his brother, King Richard.
A fine opportunity!
