About Me
Growing up encompassed by the arts heavily influenced Challum's life, constantly surrounded by creativity and art. His fascination of the stage and what lay beyond led him to discover the world of design at an early age, using unconventional materials to construct his own sets and costumes.
He owes a huge part of his career to Prop Hire Scotland, a business based in Glasgow at which he began volunteering in his youth. Since then, he has been given many opportunities to work backstage in some of Glasgow's most famous theatres, gain valuable hands-on experience with sets, and now work in partnership with Prop Hire as a freelance designer.
Specialising in Musical Theatre, his most recent projects have aimed to produce high impact and intelligent designs for small spaces on limited budgets, in order to prove that you do not need vast resources to create unforgettable productions.
