I have directed stage, film and live projects since 1974. I directed several shows for the multi-billion dollar Universal - Japan theme park in Osaka that remain in performance today. I have trained performers around the world.

I am in demand as an on-set acting coach, and I have worked with film directors to achieve effective communication with talent and crew. My workshop for directors, Directing Actors: How to Get the Performance You Want From Your Team, applies not only to working with actors but also shows how to get the very best performances from the whole cast and crew.

Aside from my wealth of experience in the movie industry I have also worked extensively directing live theater productions, including Music Hall, Vaudeville, Musical Reviews and Tribute shows. I am a regular performer and director at the Dickens Christmas Fair.
