These very kind people have worked with me and said these nice things (because I asked them nicely to)…
“When I moved on from my position as Artistic Director of People’s Theatre Collective, Tristan had my full support in his application and was the favourite candidate of the board of trustees. He has since successfully written, directed and initiated several productions for the company, proving his versatility, hard-working ethos and pragmatic artistic vision. As a director Tristan is methodical and imaginative, fast thinking, open to ideas and yet decisive. He works with commitment to the production and inspires others to follow his example.

“As a theatre maker and youth practitioner, Tristan brings a wealth of passion and knowledge to every project. He is inclusive in his practice and ensures every young person can take part, play to their strengths and feel part of a team. His ideas are inventive, broad and truly consider the needs and desires of the community he works with and presents work to.”
“Tristan has worked with Arts Uplift CIC for many years as a freelance music and creative writing facilitator. He is an excellent facilitator- knowledgeable, warm, enthusiastic and friendly and people really connect and respond positively to him. He is also such a lovely person to work with and always reliable.”
“Tristan has worked with us for a number of years, delivering therapeutic music sessions to patients on our orthopaedic, stroke and short stay wards. The feedback we receive from staff and patients is always extremely positive. His visits lift patients’ mood and help take their mind off their pain and discomfort as well as bringing joy to staff. Tristan is not only a consummate musician with a wide repertoire but is empathetic and skilled at making immediate connections with patients. Staff report that the mood of the ward lifts not only when he’s playing and singing but for some hours afterwards.”
