Hi, I am Andy – a creator of visual and performance-driven large-scale shows and theatrical entertainments. Great to meet you.
Are you looking for support in show conception, production, and realisation through empathy, clarity, and cutting edge creativity? Have a look below and get in touch.
I SPECIALISE IN large-scale stage spectacles and performances with a tendency towards pop cultural and theatrical production show aesthetics of high visual value.
I HAVE DIVERSIFIED into the commercial sector and stage-to-television formats to initiate and manage the creative for industry clients, cultural enterprises, and music performing artists.
AS A NICHE INTEREST, I endorse queer and diversity-embracing practices from concept, to casting, designing, and staging.
… AND I AM READY FOR MORE.
I create with cross-disciplinary competence and seek meaningful collaborations to shape new shows, visual spectacles, and musicals. Together, let’s employ the means of storytelling through stage craft, process design, and cutting-edge creativity.
Do you have a future-facing format in mind or want to tell a story that hasn’t been told yet?
Always in the pursuit to create holistic and meaningful encounters, I bank on my
experience, trust my intuition, and follow my curiosity.
From stadium ceremonies to techno-inspired contemporary dance performances, from family entertainment to queer and post-queer storytelling, from musical to highly visual performances, from theatre to automotive and brand activations. I am savvy in many worlds, creating what’s relevant, multilayered, reflective, and future-oriented.
