Kevin Vavasseur / The creative practice

Directing.

From the first rehearsal to the final moment onstage. Stories developed through collaboration, character, rhythm and a belief in the power of live performance.

THEATRE / NEW WORK / PERFORMANCE
01 / The perspective

Work that
connects.

Direction is a conversation between a story, the performers bringing it to life, and the audience experiencing it.

From intimate new plays to comedy, drama and musical theatre, Kevin's directing work centers on character, rhythm, collaboration and live performance. His practice brings attention to the distinctive language and human stakes of each production.
