Show Direction
I’ve worked as a show director on projects for venues as giant as Madison Square Garden and MetLife Stadium, and as intimate as tiny basement black box theaters in downtown Manhattan.
Whether I’m working for a Sports or Corporate Client, or on an experimental theater show, bold storytelling, dynamic staging, and integrated design get audiences engaged and excited.
