Musical Theatre Production
Producer of onscreen Film work with director Natasha Pincus.
LAZARUS is a live musical / play / film / experimental art performance hybrid. One of the main ‘characters’ in the Melbourne production was a large screen made of electrified glass that displayed a range of video art films directed by Natasha Pincus that interpreted and informed the onstage action.

Lazarus was the final project of David Bowie. First staged in New York in late 2015, Lazarus has enjoyed sell out seasons in New York and London. This will be the Australian premiere of the ground-breaking musical.
Featuring 18 David Bowie songs including Changes, Heroes and Absolute Beginners, Lazarus is inspired by the novel The Man Who Fell to Earth by Walter Tevis – and the movie which also starred David Bowie. The story focuses on Thomas Newton, an alien, as he remains on earth, unable to die. We follow him during the course of a few days where the arrival of another lost soul might finally set him free.
