There is a unique quality and vibrancy in theatre. The actor and audience literally and figuratively share the same space and the bedrock technology is the human body. It is an artform that relies on recognising our human condition and heightening the pleasure we can find in each other's company.
I work as writer, director and performer, creating in a wide variety of genres from dramatic plays to cabarets and musicals. I also co-director Such As They Are, a company which uses puppets and visuals in symbolic forms. My performances include work for children and adults. Each has special requirements but fundamentally, they're not too different. A good story is a good story and good acting is good acting. My performances often feature innovative sets, puppets, storytelling, physical characterisation, comedy and recently, musical theatre. The mix is designed to take audiences on a voyage, lift them from the ordinary into an imaginative world and new perspective. My principal education is a BA (Theatre/Media) from Charles Sturt University, followed by further studies with John Bolton, John Wright, Philippe Gaulier and at the Desmond Jones School of Mime in London. I also completed a Master of Design (Film/TV) from Edinburgh College of Art. |
