"A good director creates an environment which gives the actor the encouragement to fly."
Kevin Bacon (actor and musician)
Over the years many members have directed shows for NWTC. Occassionally visiting directors (*) have directed NWTC members. The following is a list of shows people have directed with NWTC (they may have directed with other companies too but that isn't listed here). The list is being developed - if you notice any omissions/errors do please let us know (julie@nwtc.lu).
Also feel free to write to NWTC (committee@nwtc.lu) if you would like support from a director listed below - they can put you in touch if at all possible.
