The Ballad of Rosie Crumpet.
An irreverent and thought-provoking journey into true crime, love, and mixing up the two…
Rosie Crumpet’s true crime podcast ‘Murder Fun Time’ is storming into its third season – an exploration of the recent crimes of the Cuckfield Cutthroat. But this time, she may be in over her head… because she’s also head over heels for her subject. What follows is both an enchanting love story, and a sharp satire on the modern commercialisation of humanities darkest corners, leading Rosie to dangerous moral decision. In equal measure touching, troubling and titillating, ‘The Ballad Of Rosie Crumpet’ dives into the fetishisation of true crime and asks… when does examination become endorsement?
A conceptual research and development design project. Designed for The Caird Studio at RWCMD with the idea that it would be tour-able and transferable.
