A simple, accessible website for a freely available theatre book

Greg Hersov is a British theatre director with a long career including his work as Artistic Director of the Royal Exchange Theatre in Manchester. His website was created to make his book, Something Rich And Strange, freely available to readers online.

This accessible author website design project focused on clarity, readability and public access. Greg wanted the book to be available to everyone, without a paywall, purchase barrier or complicated user journey. It reflects Ultraluminal’s wider work in website design and build for projects where content and usability are central.

The website was built around the reading experience. The structure gives visitors a straightforward route into the book, while accessibility controls allow readers to adjust contrast schemes and font sizes to suit their needs. This kind of clear publishing structure connects closely with SEO and content support.

The result is a focused digital publication that supports Greg’s aim of sharing his work as widely as possible, particularly with theatre makers, students and readers interested in theatre, directing and performance.
