Working with director Herbie Poole and assistant sound designer Jacob Lin along we created a cast performed foley track for the cast of the radio play version of Its a Wonderful Life. I gave a few tips and a quick workshop and the cast picked it up quickly, with everyone chipping in some great additions to the foley world.

Director and producer Craig Pike's Angels In America was a joy to work on, presented at Buddies in Bad Times Theatre. Great play, great cast and team. The two nights of shows were long and great theatre.

Director Selma Dimitrijevic used a cast of 6 people rotating through 2 parts in this production of one of Shaw's shorter works. Rather than using a fixed score with different people playing each show, I used cues based of groups of variations of ideas, with each cue firing off a random option that included not playing anything. This gave the show a slightly different score to work with the different casting for each show.

Helped implement Michael Laird's design and manage and mix Scott Joplin's opera, Treemonisha, for Volcano Theatre at the Luminato Festival. Its a great piece with a live band onstage that just needed a bit of sonic help to work at the Bluma Appel theatre, a subtle job that helped the audience fully experience the work without getting in the way.

Reworked the original sound design for Jean-Pierre Perreault's 1986 choreography for Citadel + Compagnie for the Luminato Festival. Its a beautiful piece where all the sounds are created by the dancers. I helped design and mix the stage mics to pick up all the footsteps, breaths, vocal sounds and textures that create a fascinating score.

Chelsea Woolley's script was a pleasure to work on, she used broken thoughts and language to create really interesting characters. Mike Payette's direction was clear and detailed. The show didn't need much sound or music but I was happy to be there and add what was needed.
