Highlights

Just Some Theatre
We had Xander work on the Production of 'Coward' in Brighton at The Marlborough Theatre. Xander worked very quickly and very efficiently, we had little time to rig lights but he managed to do everything perfect and in time. He worked both Lights and Sound for the show and all performances went without any hiccups. Was a pleasure to work with and I would recommend him for any show, has a great attitude to work and will ensure all your requirements are reached and provides good feedback for further development on projects.
