My goal...

as a Director is to bring out the best performance from the actors and tell the story of the play in a compelling way. 

For as long as I can remember I have been in love with story telling. 

I have only a few memories of my first show, they are: an enormous set piece, my cute co-star, and the audience. 

The set piece was fascinating (a music “machine” with colourful styrofoam balls that bounced to the music,) my co-star was amazing (he was three years older and knew how everything worked) but what I loved most was hearing the audience experience everything. I was hooked. 

From then on my friends had to put up with being a part of a new show every other week:  Did your parents happen to bring you to a dinner party at our house?  Well, you could expect to be wearing a costume and performing a groundbreaking experimental work by bedtime.
