“Tim is an outstanding musician with an incredible understanding of the workings of musical theatre. As the Assistant MD for Calendar Girls his Sibelius work, keyboard programming skills and general musicianship have been an asset to the production. His outstanding playing, calm demeanour, likeable approach and willingness to go the extra mile has been noted by members of the company and creative team alike and I firmly believe Tim would be an incredible hire for any production.”
