Hello! We’re stoked to be bringing you our second episode of Company. Today on the show, we’re chatting with Shaun Rennie.
Shaun is a director extraordinaire, who we had the pleasure of working with when he flew over to Perth to direct Mamma Mia at WAAPA. He is a wonderfully talented man who this year has directed IRENE (Neglected Musicals), THE RISE AND DISGUISE OF ELIZABETH R (Hayes Theatre), CONSIDERING MATTHEW SHEPARD (Sydney Philharmonia Choir), MAMMA MIA! (Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts), and was set to direct AMELIÉ at Darlinghurst Theatre Company pre-COVID. In this episode, we talked about Shaun’s move to directing after being a performer, what he’s learnt through COVID as an artist, and his conception of Light the Night, an annual benefit concert for leukemia research, which he produced and directed for 10 years.
We’re so happy we got to catch up with Shaun and host him on our pod, and we’re sure you’ll love what he has to say.
