Conception, creation and delivery of video and projection for live performance, driven by story and location.
Originally from Liverpool, Dan trained at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, where he received the Lord Mayor’s Prize. Since then his work has spanned national tours, new musicals, opera, and large-scale events, with an established presence in the West End, including Your Lie in April (Harold Pinter Theatre), Instructions for a Teenage Armageddon (Garrick Theatre), and concert stagings of For Tonight (Adelphi Theatre) and Bat Boy: The Musical (London Palladium).
(collaboration)
Dan regularly collaborates with FRAY Studios as Associate Video Designer to Finn Ross, across their portfolio of productions and events, including Disney’s Frozen: The Musical (Netherlands, Stuttgart and Korea), Back to the Future: The Musical (Tokyo), Les Misérables (Madrid and the 40th Anniversary Concert), and Vogue World: London, a theatre-inspired fashion show broadcast live from Theatre Royal Drury Lane.
He has also worked on two productions in Kip Williams’ acclaimed “cine-theatre” trilogy: the award-winning The Picture of Dorian Gray, starring Sarah Snook, at the Theatre Royal Haymarket, and Dracula, starring Cynthia Erivo, at the Noël Coward Theatre. Both were widely praised for their inventive use of video.
