“He is the rare stage director whose embodied knowledge as a highly experienced musical performer animates his cast and turns the stage into a living space of discovery and wonder. With small budgets and short timeframes or large budgets and expansive schedules, his flexible inventiveness makes magic.” Rena Sharon, Former Artistic Director of VISI (Vancouver International Song Institute)
“(Silent Chap was) great proof that not only does Alan have a unique and impressive vision, he is also able to fully execute that vision into an impressively high quality and ambitious product. He passionately tackles new artistic practices while exploring the most efficient and collaborative ways to work with his creative partners.” Daryl Cloran, Artistic Director of Citadel Theatre
