Composition


			
Music Piece

			 
@ Edmund Burke Theatre 
 
			Composed and directed by me, 2025 
 
			Gentle physical acting and video design beside playback of music recorded and performed by me.

			It was non-verbal and created with a neurodivergent focus. One of 3 out of 35 submissions chosen to headline DU Players' Summerfest.

			I played drums, guitars, basses, keys, vocals. Compared favourably to Brian Eno! And Alex G! Thanks everyone.

Dozens of independent productions mainly in the Samuel Beckett Theatre and DU Players, two blackbox theatres residing in TCD.
			Work with a wide variety of different teams, directors and timescales. My design has also been in the Abbey Theatre's black box and Smock Alley.
