Creative Lead for immersive experiences -

live, mr, vr and attractions.

I was at the heart of immersive theatre's re-emergence in the early 2000's co-directing the very first pieces of work with Punchdrunk and then starting my own immersive company Goat and Monkey. My 25 years of award winning immersive experiences nationally and internationally has led to my increasing specialism in combining the live experience with video game crossovers including live missions, game play and encouraging repeat playability in audiences.

Projects include; a Punk VR Game in collaboration with Storyfutures, BBC and the BFI, large-scale immersive performances with 300 actors, pyrotechnics and aerial theatre across 100 000 sq ft, and an immersive shows at the World Expo in Shanghai with live digital links and simultaneous performances happening on the Southbank. I have created a real-world treasure hunts combing live immersive shows in different locations with an online digital alternate reality game played by 80 000+ players across the globe.

Since 2016 I have been working closely with Felix at Punchdrunk International on projects combining AAA game companies' IP with innovative live experiences and missions. I specialises in working to create and champion a vision, leading small agile teams of designers, producers and creatives to build complex worlds and experiences from the ground up.

I love this work!

Associate director, creative lead. punchdrunk international (NDA)

Since 2016 I have been combining AAA game companies' IP with innovative live experience. I specialise in working with the vision of an Artistic Director/game lead and champion this vision with a small team of designers, producers and creatives to build complex worlds from the ground up in the form of decks/GDD's.

As part of this project I worked with an external software company learning to code using visual scripting for two years. Since then I have started to learn Unreal Engine 5 Blueprints.
