Reviews

"Performances by Alex Walker and Hannah Botha are subtle and keep hidden the horror of the ending which came as a real shock to me but which my son assures me he saw coming."

Theatreview

​

"The two actors gave subtle yet nuanced performances and though the ending may not have come to a surprise to everyone, I feel the build up to it was superbly executed and delivered with just the right amount of tension to keep the audience guessing."

    One fateful morning, after working for a little while in production departments on various film and television projects, I decided to go for a run around the local park. It was a good run, I was setting a new personal best time up until I tripped and fell and snapped my arm. While in hospital I decided to leave working in Film and focus entirely creating theatre projects. 

    I have gone on to direct, produce and Stage Manage different performances across Auckland.

    I am always on the look out for my next project.
