My Current Projects
Windsong: A musical fable
In the world of Windsong, Tales are traded between each town’s Teller and the Wind – thus supplying firesides ’round the world with new stories. ‘A song for a song, and a rhyme for a rhyme,’ they all sing. But when Rory’s village runs out of Tales, they are put in battle with the Wind. Will Rory learn how to talk to the Wind and Tell a Tale, before the blizzard comes and tears them all apart? Windsong is about the price of a story and what we will risk to Tell one.
Development: R&D February 2025, R&D September 2024 (both C&D Productions), Concert July 2021 (self-produced). NYMT workshop May 2025.
Cast: 10, Band: 5

90 Seconds to Midnight
NSTM is a collaboratively written and devised piece of musical theatre looks to reframe processes around writing musicals and takes inspiration from television writers’ rooms and band rehearsals. The initial provocation for our first show is The Doomsday Clock- which is now set at 89 seconds before midnight. The piece will explore multiple interwoven stories of people affected by nuclear risk, climate change, and disruptive technologies.
Development: Workshop Summer 2023, Workshop Spring 2025 (both Timelapse / New Diorama)
