What's the greatest lesson you've learnt as a Theatre Consultant?

To listen.

What first sparked your love of theatre or performing arts?

Theatre has always been a part of my life from a young age. The best part of it is the people and the many great memories I have working with such talented, funny, interesting and diverse people.

What qualities should a 'great performance space' have?

A performance space can be many things to many people. What a performance space should give you is a sense of wonder and excitement and that will be unique to the person and the production.
