Dave Spencer

Director of theatre and opera.

I am the Co-Producer and Associate Director of The So & So Arts Club, and trained on the King's Head Theatre's Directing Programme graduating in July 2016.

I have worked as an assistant on various productions and also directed in my own right.

I remounted Adam Spreadbury-Maher's La Boheme at Trafalgar Studios, which was then nominated for Best New Opera in the Olivier Awards alongside two ROH productions.
