What Clients Are Saying
“David was the most probing when it came to my vision for the world and for the show. The result was a level of articulation on my part that manifest in a crystal-clear vision across our entire creative team. Without David’s inquisitiveness and specificity, I’m not sure that level of clarity would have been achieved.”
— Beth Lopes (Theatrical Director)
