“I make theatre that tells stories and challenges theatre form,  using words,  music, lighting, soundscapes  and performers.

I prefer an empty space to be filled by actors who play with the relationship of the work to the audience, using its emotional content to engage the audience.

Its not intended to be confrontational, but persuasive, the form of presentation often masking the underlying battle with form,  sometimes pretending to be an “old fashioned” style of playing while subtly subverting the very nature of that relationship with the audience. 

Sometimes, I use music to create a mood and contrast that with the visual actions or sometimes I just let the language of  the work cast its own spell.

I make theater because I am driven to do it - there is no alternative, the only other option is darkness, and we can see nothing in darkness, but theatre, can ignite the soul, illuminate our hearts and transport us beyond despair into the light!"
