Daniel Story

About Daniel 

Daniel is a freelance stage and production manager working across a multitude of performance genres. He has gained experience on productions and experiences of varying sizes, from one performer playing the banjo surrounded by 15 live sheep onstage, to 100 beachgoers lying on 90 tonnes of sand in Sydney Town Hall. Daniel enjoys the challenges of live performance and adapting rapidly during moments of adversity. Prior to enhancing his skills at NIDA, Daniel obtained a Bachelor of Contemporary Arts at the University of Tasmania where he became a multi-faceted theatre practitioner and enriched his knowledge of art history and theory. He shows a keen interest for experimental art, stepping outside the confines of a traditional theatre context.
