Head of Flies

Ballet Showcase 2026

Flying and stage-technology work at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.

Role overview

Working as Head of Flies placed this production within my developing theatre-flying and stage-technology practice. The role formed part of a coordinated backstage team where clear communication and safe, repeatable systems were central to the work.

The work

  • Theatre flying and counterweight-system practice
  • Backstage communication and coordination
  • Pre-show preparation and safe working
  • Working within a production team
