Good dramaturgical support can be very expensive, and many creators go without due to financial limitations. Andrew Jamieson would like to make this support accessible to those in the theatre community without the financial status of professional productions.
What is Dramaturgical Support?
A dramaturg, in the development process, is a sounding board. They are a cheerleader, a midwife, a coach, a question asker, sometimes a problem solver, and most importantly, someone you can trust. They are often your first audience, and your ultimate ally until the birth of your play.
Who is Andrew Jamieson?
Andrew Jamieson’s early appearance on a professional stage (at the age of 5), as well as his extensive formal theatre training, led him to direct his first professional production at the age of 16. Since then, he has directed over a dozen professional professional theatrical productions, two short films, three music videos, as well as his own experimental “Immersive Reality” productions. Through the latter, Andrew has developed a unique approach to acting, a hybrid of numerous familiar academic methods, and Metamodern concepts. His strong writing, experimental practice, and his continual appearance onstage throughout his life as an actor, dancer, vocalist, spoken word artists, comedian, and public speaker, makes Andrew uniquely qualified to provide guidance and support to any theatrical endeavour.
With each Creator, Andrew will tailor his support to the specific needs of the artist and the project.
