About
Andrew studied dance with Merce Cunningham in New York and theatre in Paris with Philippe Gaulier, Monika Pagneux, and Jacques Lecoq.
In 1984-1992 he formed Mime Theatre Project with Gavin Robertson. They created the theatre show ‘Thunderbirds F.A.B.’ touring to small venues and eventually performing 6 seasons in London’s West End and two world tours. Andrew has worked with an extraordinary range of theatrical and creative projects with companies such as RainPan43, Redcape Theatre, ENO, MET Opera NYC & The Young Vic.
He has became a Feldenkrais practitioner attending a professional training programme (1990 -1994) and Hatha Yoga Teacher training (2016) reflecting his curiosity into the physical body, mindfulness and movement.
