DIRECTING & Designing CREDITS

In addition to performing, Patrick Jeremy has a passion for creating new interpretations of works. He has directed and designed a number of shows with his production company Swell Productions, with a particular focus on chamber operas and musical theatre works.

Many of these productions featured in the State Opera of South Australia's seasons in The Opera Studio. Patrick directed the Young Artist Program and Schools Company at the State Opera and worked as an Assistant Director on a number of mainstage operas, including Glyndebourne’s Flight, ENO’s Nixon in China and Opera Australia’s Madama Butterfly.

As Artistic Director to the children's Festival of Music, Patrick directed and designed a number of new short musical theatre works presented in the Adelaide Festival Theatre. Site-specific works include Hansel & Gretel in a forest for the Bundaleer Forest Festival, and Into the Woods staged amongst the bookshelves of the Mortlock Chamber, a heritage Victorian library.

Patrick was awarded the Winston Churchill Fellowship for directing and the Young Achiever of the Year.
