Biography
1+1 = 3, where the whole is greater then the sum of its parts.
Over 25 years experience of technical theatre working in Lighting, learning from the ground up and collecting skills from Lighting Designers from around the world and now bringing you all that experience in the form of my own Lighting Designs with a heavy emphasis on the importance of new writing and art, bringing the visions of our creative minds to the reality of the stage.
