Craig Ilott, Award-winning Director
With 25+ years professional experience, I dream, create and realise playful, insightful and powerful works.
Having worked with some of the leading names in world theatre on productions for companies such as the UK's The Royal Opera House, Royal Shakespeare Company and National Theatre, I have an international eye for the very best. Locally I have created designs for Opera Queensland, The State Library of Queensland, Queensland Theatre and LaBoite.
I am also a Co-Artistic Director of Little Match Productions
a home of women conjuring high quality music driven productions ranging from contemporary opera to feminist comedy cabaret.
