About

BASED IN LONDON, DAMIEN IS A DESIGNER FOR STAGE, EVENTS, AND INSTALLATIONS.

His recent set design for Jamie Allan’s Amaze marked his Off-Broadway debut, following a West End run at the Criterion Theatre. He was also the designer of Brainiac Live at the Marylebone Theatre, which won the 2025 Olivier Award for Best Family Show.

Other recent work includes The Acts (Barbican), Machinal (Mountview), Bury The Hatchet (Edinburgh), Wonderland in Alice (Octagon Theatre), Hamstrung (Omnibus & Pleasance), and international designs such as Brainiac Live (Dubai Opera House) and The Yellow Wallpaper (Sadler’s Wells & Czech National Theatre, Associate Designer).

In addition to his theatre work, Damien has delivered bold installation and event designs for institutions including Transport for London, the London Transport Museum, and Blenheim Palace, creating large-scale public works like the Spectrum Roundel, the Poster Chandelier, and Paddington™ LoComotion.

He co-founded Theatre Support Fund+ during the pandemic, raising over £1 million for industry workers through The Show Must Go On! campaign, earning both The Stage Award for Innovation in Theatre and a place on The Stage 100 list.

A proud advocate for Neurodiverse artists and creatives living with Neurological Disabilities, Damien is passionate about making space for voices that challenge, innovate, and inspire.

WONDERLAND IN ALICE - A NEW MUSICAL

★★★★

Set designer Damien Stanton has created an eye-catching aesthetic, with monochromatic costumes giving way to vibrant neon lights and splashes of colour, particularly when re-creating the iconic deck of cards.

Musical Theatre Review

WONDERLAND IN ALICE

★★★★

Theatre Peckham has a great space to play with and this was captured by Damien Stanton’s stage design which was an integral part of the show as it highlighted Alice’s journey both physically and mentally. Which helped the theatre come to life.

THEATRE AND TONIC

JAMIE ALLAN'S AMAZE

★★★★

What sets Amaze apart from other magic shows is its unexpected emotional resonance. This coupled with visually stunning set that reflects significant elements of Allan's life, adds a rich texture rarely found in traditional magic shows.
