Oderin opens next week! So, what better time to start introducing you to the talented crew members working behind the scenes?

Originally from St. John’s, Bob Stamp’s career has led him through numerous roles in stage and screen production. With a background in team sports, Bob stumbled into working backstage right out of high school and immediately experienced being part of a different kind of team. Bob believes that any individual designer’s success is achieved only through collaboration with the crew behind-the-scenes and he wishes to acknowledge and thank those other professionals who don’t get their bios printed in programs.

Alison Helmer is a multidisciplinary artist who has been deeply and continuously influenced by her studies and experience working on the east coast. Born and raised on the prairies, she began her theatre education with the Stagecraft program at Grenfell college before completing the Scenography program at the National Theatre School of Canada. She approaches her artistic practice through a lens of fantasy, history, and traditional storytelling. She is excited by Theatre that pushes the boundaries between convention and experimentation, and that seeks to fulfill our shared search for truth, escape, and connection.
Adam Foran is a composer, music producer and sound designer who works from his studio in St. John's, Newfoundland. He graduated from Memorial University of Newfoundland's Music Composition program in 2003. His film scores have played nationally on CBC, and internationally at film festivals such as Cannes and Sitges, and have won awards at film festivals in Atlanta and Portland. Recently he composed the music for the acclaimed podcast "Come By Chance" for the CBC, and the yet unreleased podcast "Extreme: K2" for BBC radio 4.
