Calling all intrepid explorers! Are you a camera person (or studying it?) would like to be part of a once in a life time expedition to complete the Snow Leopard Challenge to climb the Russian peaks and film the teams journey? This is an amazing experience and will also put your work on the radar. It will be tough, extreme temperatures, the endurance over 50 days but if you think you have the skills get in touch with me on here - the expedition is this summer...please share

This is a tale that has traversed generations and worlds to seek and unfold moments from long ago. A tale of discovery and true understanding of our purpose and connection to the earth. It is a frightening tale of loss and darkness. A tale of mystery and wonder shall be told in riddles and clues that will unfold. When all seems calm, the bitter…

O What A Lovely War is our next Everyman production after the Festival. This brilliant, potent, anti-war musical is a landmark in British theatre and we are fortunate enough to be allowed to perform it in November 2014 covering Armistice week (9 -16th)



Usually performed as a full musical, we are experimenting with it as a musical play with an on stage pianist/MD, guitarist and percussionist. Keeping to the original Joan Littlewood format of unisex Pierrots…

Prepare to be transported into a mystical world of religion and ritual, chakras and shamanism, talismans and transcendence, as TaikaBox return to the Sherman Theatre with a remix of their 2012 production Beyond the Body on 11 June 2014.

When The Opportunity of Efficiency was performed at the New National Theatre in Tokyo last year the play was written, in reality, by two people.

I was given the credit – my name on the posters outside the hulking theatre that sits near the busy Shinjuku area of Tokyo – but I was always keenly aware that the translator, Kaku Nagashima, had written the actual words spoken on stage.

Writing the play for a foreign national theatre, having it translated into Japanese and…

Suitably staged (and not just for seniors, but for families and young people, too) at 2.30 on a Sunday afternoon, Stepping into Spring drew a good-sized, intergenerational crowd. It was a joyful experience, and I was moved to tears of joy more than once.

Dressed in his Sunday best shorts and t shirt and straight from the surf so he said, Age Cymru’s new Chief Executive, Ian Thomas, made the introductions to this Gwanwyn Festival event: the culmination of a…

So in addition to the performing arts things I do (mainly in music, opera and theatre), I also have a track record of working with an artist called Micah Purnell, in Manchester and now in Cardiff. He's a visual artist; specifically a street artist; specifically a flyposter artist. I was a fan before I helped him with producing his work and now I'm glad to be able to say I support him.

Belle is a seamless production of a costume drama with an original and moving theme. The acting was superb and the musical score was wonderful. It was a joy to watch and listen throughout.
