Some Previous Work:

Most recently, Andrew was the Music Director for Spring Awakening with the Winnipeg Studio Theatre. Just before that he was the Music Director for Cats followed by playing Keyboard 1 for Hairspray at Rainbow Stage. He also recently produced and was the music director for a production of The Last Five Years by Jason Robert Brown with his new production company, Act Natural Productions. The show featured a six-piece orchestra with an intricate piano score. The resulting show was very well received by all who attended. He was also the Music Director for Rainbow Stage's 2010 summer productions of RENT and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (for the performance run). Before that he was in Toronto where he played for Mirvish Productions on The Boys In The Photograph as Keyboard I in the pit orchestra. He was also hired as the production's music copyist since the show was being updated and required extensive work on the musical score to produce accurate band parts and a complete piano/vocal score.

Rainbow Stage and the Manitoba Theatre Centre have had Andrew play for their musical productions including The Wizard of Oz, The Sound of Music, The Boys in the Photograph, Rocky Horror Show, Beauty and the Beast, and The Drowsy Chaperone.

At the Neptune Theatre in Halifax, Andrew was the music director in 2008 for their production of The Producers and before that, in 2007 for Beauty and the Beast. The Academy of Acting in Winnipeg had Andrew as their music director for a production of Sweeney Todd in 2008 and again in 2009 for RENT.

Andrew was the music director at St. Alban's Anglican Parish from 2000 to 2004, and was previously the pianist & organist at Holy Cross Roman Catholic Parish for eleven years. He was the full time accompanist with Vincent Massey Collegiate from 1998 to 2008, working with the choral & musical theatre classes as well as playing for their musical productions. He was also the accompanist for the Scandinavian Canadian Choir from 1998 until 2011.
