About me
I have worked casually in technical theatre with Carmarthenshire Theatres for 10 years, overing cinema projection, stage management, lighting, sound and get-ins, fit-ups and get-outs. Having trained and worked as a design engineer I progressed my carrer by studying a design & production degree at Trinity University. During my first year of study I registered self employed and have enjoyed regular work in both engineering and theatre. I have good knowledge of technical skill but me specialties are in scenic construction, CAD, stage management and production management. I currently work full time at Trinity University as workshop manager and supply assistance to all year groups as well as on tour, main house and site specific. Outside of work I can usually be found repairing classic VW cars or scuba diving.Additional skills:
Workshop facilitator course attended
Puppetry workshop attended
Additional information:
Profesionally, I have build sets for Theatre Na Nog, one touring and one mainhouse. The touring set was The Boy, Chick and the Golden Egg, this toured to local schools and theatres. The secont set was for a production called Halt, Who Goes There. This was situed at the Dylan Thomas Theatre in Swansea. Most recently I have built Private Peaceful for Scamp Theatre (National UK tour). And regularly supervise and assist the set building at Trinity Saint David University.
