“Adam Handford is musical director for this show and Nick Burst is the sound designer and both need an immense amount of credit. They mix together live and recorded music seamlessly. I couldn’t separate the two at all. Tracey Gibbs’ lighting design is brilliant, Charlotte McAdam’s costumes fit the piece and the characters wonderfully and Malin Helland’s set design is simple yet stunning.”

I have just finished working with Tracey on Earthquakes in London at LAMDA. It was my first time working with video content in theatre performance and Tracey was wonderful at supporting the ideas I had whilst also developing them with her knowledge and expertise of how we could actual realise these in production. She embraced the vision for the show and all her work enhanced the aesthetic life of the play. Her approach was also to ensure that the AV content supported the narrative and world of the production so that it never felt like it was incongruous or an unnecessary add on. She sourced and created unique video content which became an integral component of the show, adding a whole new level of texture to this epic. Tracey is super supportive and open - a wonderful member of the team!

I have had the privilege of working with Tracey twice during my final Foundation Certificate performances. During Generation Y, Tracey was responsible for sourcing and designing the AV content for what was, an AV heavy performance. Her knowledge and vision of possible footage was excellent. This allowed me to to discuss my ideas with her and then pick from the content she had sourced. During Iconic, Tracey also designed the AV content and helped with the lighting. Her eye for detail is exemplary and nothing is ever too much trouble for her. Tracey is passionate about making performance look aesthetically, as excellent as it can be. During this latter production, Tracey was a pivotal member of the production team and her positive presence was a joy to work with.

For over ten years Tracey has been a trusted photography supplier and source of great inspiration and advice when it comes to the still image. A positive attitude, boundless enthusiasm and great skill means she’s able to work with a wide range of budgets. She’s one of only a handful of photographers in Manchester that I call on time and time again to deliver me exceptional photographic solutions.
