In these episodes, I am going to share over forty years of working on the tech side of the theatre industry. Lighting, Rigging, Scenery, being a TD, LD, stagehand, working as an installer of theatre equipment systems, and ultimately getting into sales and leadership roles. What sparked this idea was talking with a young man who was trying to decide if a future in the theatre industry was right for him.

In a world obsessed with instant results, this podcast dives into the grit behind greatness. Hosted by Damon “Dag” Atwood, an engineer, designer, and creative who has lived through both the thrill of success and the pain of setbacks, Never Give Up explores the real stories behind innovation, the failures, the late nights, and the sparks of inspiration that refuse to die.
This episode unpacks how persistence fuels ideation, design, engineering, and development, from garage inventors to aerospace visionaries. You’ll hear how prototypes fall apart before they fly, how ideas evolve through rejection, and why the phrase “never give up” isn’t cliché, it’s the foundation of progress.
If you’ve ever felt like quitting, if you’ve ever wondered why you keep building when no one’s watching, this is for you. Because in the world of creation, endurance isn’t just a trait; it’s the ultimate technology.
Rock ON!
