About me
I'm a bit of a jack-of-all-trades, but I put 100% effort into everything. Recent projects include:- Producer of '3 Stages for Lazarus' a puppet show taken to Suspense festival in London. November '15
- 'Master of Shadows' for Henry V at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse and Tanner St., London. July/August '15
- Coordinator for the International Performance Festival Cardiff.
- Performer & Interpreter (Japanese-English) for Aomori Project.
- Director/Producer for "Putnam and Joy", a puppet performance by RUNTcollective.
- Assistant Producer for Who Killed the Elephant at Chapter Arts Centre.
- I regularly work as a Supporting Artist on TV and film.
- I also work as a silhouette portrait artist mix-and-mingle entertainer for events.
Additional skills:
If there's anything craft related I tend to be good at that. I have experience in:
- Set building
- Sewing
- Puppet making
If there's any specialised equipment I haven't used before I can be very quick at picking things up. I have a steady hand and good hand-eye coordination.
