TESTIMONIALS
"James has been a great pleasure to work with – a wonderful communicator and utterly dedicated to his passion, as a theatre producer.
I would always want him on my team as I know he would give any job his all. The success of The Backpack Ensemble and what he has achieved to date shows he has what it takes to succeed and I am convinced he is a talent to watch.”
Kate Danielson, Director of the Weston Jerwood Creative Bursaries
"I've had the pleasure of both mentoring and working alongside James over the last few years and he's a very talented, creative and agile producer with an exciting future. His understanding of and care for artists and creatives is exemplary, a skill that is more powerful than ever right now.
​
He's not only a top producer but an excellent communicator, project manager and fundraiser. He's got a great sense of humour and all round good bloke, who won't let any team down.
A vital part of any team. If you're reading this and wondering whether you should employ him then stop now and do it."
John Tomlinson, Producer at Sheffield Theatres
“James has a great knack at balancing your interests as an artist, with the optimum output the project can become.
​
He’s been a great believer in me and Bonfire, which has given me a lot of space to focus on creating whilst he leads other development with charm and flair. He’s genuinely interested in how else he can support your voice and projects, and I feel like I’ve found in him a producer I can turn to for advice, inspiration and energy.
​
I challenge you to try working with him and not develop a great friendship along the way.”
“I have worked with James on a number of occasions with James giving the same exceptional level of commitment and dedication to each project, demonstrating an ability to learn quickly and to be self-motivated. He is intelligent, well-mannered and I would work with him again without delay.
James’ knowledge of producing theatre and the arts industry is very impressive, he obviously has a real drive and passion for the arts sector and will only continue to develop.”
Michael Hoyle, Technical Manager at Lincoln Performing Arts Centre
"An incredibly hard worker who is confident and determined in everything he puts his mind to. Has always been a real pleasure to work with. His use of contacts and social media is second to none.
Can't wait to see what James goes on to do in this industry because it's going to be big."
