"Chickens In The Yard" (2017)
Adrian's design work and compositions were absolutely essential to the success of our production. His multilayered atmospheric sounds enhanced the complicated subtleties in the play, and his hypnotic compositions for the choreographed sequences helped bring together the real and surreal elements of the play. He is intuitive, smart, reliable and lovely to work with.
