Tilted Hilton Productions makes original theatre focused on memory, inheritance, and identity. The work returns repeatedly to fatherhood, masculinity, and the emotional systems people learn to live inside.
These themes are not treated as subjects, but as structures that shape behavior, silence, and role formation across time.
Artistic Practice
My work uses theatre and music to build character-driven pieces where identity is often split, layered, or distributed across internal perspectives rather than traditional character frameworks. Solo performance is a recurring form because it allows multiple voices, pressures, and histories to exist within a single body on stage.
I am interested in how narrative is formed through repetition and distortion. What is remembered, what is edited out, and what returns in altered form.
Collaboration is a core part of the process. I work closely with directors, dramaturgs, and performers to develop work that is structurally clear and emotionally direct, while remaining open to experimentation in form and staging.
The practice is currently focused on developing new Canadian theatre through ongoing work that connects personal history with broader cultural patterns of inheritance and performance.
