Callum Dale
Set Designer
Callum Dale (He/Him) is a Melbourne/Naarm based theatre maker who takes pride in his diverse range of skills and production roles and clear lack of specialisation or precise career direction. He has worked as a Set, Lighting and Audio Designer, Stage Manager, Production Manager, Dramaturg, Director, Technician, Mechanist, Performer, and Musician, and still enjoys the variety of experiences and challenges these roles provide.
He has a Master of Dramaturgy (Victorian College of the Arts, The University of Melbourne) and Bachelor of Arts in Theatre & History (Monash University), and was one of the 2016 Jim Marks Postgraduate Scholarship recipients alongside a secondment on The Odd Couple by Neil Simon at Melbourne Theatre Company (MTC) directed by Peter Houghton.
He has previously toured with Nuworks Theatre to the United Kingdom (2014), Edinburgh Fringe Festival (2018, 2019), Auckland Fringe Festival (2022), Adelaide Fringe Festival (2019, 2022), and regionally across Victoria.
As the Technical Manager at Monash Uni Student Theatre (MUST), and previously a Production Manager for several Melbourne high schools, he enjoys educating and mentoring emerging theatre makers and seeing the vibrant and inventive work they create.
His most recent credits include; Set Design for Macbeth (dir. Yvonne Virsik, MUST), Wasteland (dir. Siobhan Judge, MUST & Melbourne Fringe Festival), A Midsummer Night's Dream (dir. Julia Grace, SMGS), The Addams Family (dir. Natalie Calia, SMGS), and Twelfth Night (dir. Scott Crozier SMGS); Lighting Design for Little Women (Dir.
