BIOGRAPHY

"EVERY SOUL IS BEAUTIFUL"

GP_DSC7947.JPG

" Every artistic work is a work of the soul, and regardless of how a script or a libretto is written, it is my task as a director to bring out the truth and the core of each work, with the spirit of all who are a part of each project".

 

Stemming from a Classical Music Background, Heather found her Passion for Directing through her many experiences working with Artists and Individuals from all walks of Life - from conducting Choir, to being a Pianist and Classical Singer, and through Opera and Film-related productions. Since 2017, she has been actively involved in assisting and directing staged works, and since 2020, filmic works. She studied at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna with a Magister Degree (mag. art) in Musiktheaterregie (Music Theater Direction) under Directors such as Beverly Blankenship, Helen Malkowsky and Michael Sturminger. Her passion to direct has also lead her to forming her own collective "Production Bohemia", where she works with different youth artists to make stage, concert and film related productions. She has assisted and interned at various productions, such as at Schlosstheater Schönbrunn, Neue Oper Wien and notably at Vienna State Opera for "Tristan und Isolde" with Calixto Bieito. She has directed various operatic repertoire such as "Die Zauberflöte", "La Cenerentola", "La boheme", "Don Pasquale", "Carmen", "Le nozze di Figaro" and oratorio "Händels the Messiah", and future works include "Pagliacci", modern work "A Singapore Trilogy" and several self written Pastiches. Since September 2022, she is also fixed at Staatstheater Augsburg as a directing Assistant for the department of Opera and Musicals
