Christopher Neels

Director

I am a New Zealand born, London based director and performer with experience in new writing and interactive/immersive theatre. I have several years of experience across both the UK and New Zealand industries in a variety of different forms and productions. Interested in exploring an audience's relationship to live performance and currently interested in assisting on new projects.
