CompanyIntended for the Victoria State Opera Company1For reason unbeknown to the Barry Kay Archive, the Victoria State Opera Company decided to abandon the production of Peter Grimes later in 1984 or in early 1985, thus terminating Barry Kay's design work midstream. By that time he had designed the preparatory so-called white model, or working model of miniature scale, and completed the final model at a scale of 1:25. The termination however put an end to designing the costumes. – See Biography for further information.
