Hi, I'm Matt Powell!

With over ten years of experience crafting a variety of theatrical productions in a variety of roles, I have a strong passion for creating unforgettable entertainment, bold in design, vision and joy. Through every project I've worked on, I've turned concepts into exciting realities by leading with an innovative mindset, constantly questioning, and experimenting to find the best and most effective way to create something engaging and exceptional. I thrive of the challenge of curating an entertaining experience. Be it my work in producing and development: encouraging artists to pursue an idea, offering dramaturgical feedback, nurturing artist development, and helping shape its first outing into the world. Be it my work as a video designer: crafting reality defying concepts by blending film, and animation to create seamless blends of reality and digital. Be it my musical theatre direction work: engaging performers to perform authentically and staging exceptional revivals or new musicals. I have a strong skillset in seeing a project through, offering a supportive and firm management style to achieve exceptional artistry. As a Queer practitioner, I am deeply passionate about broadening LGBTQ+ representation across the arts and am currently writing a PhD on Producing Representation.
