Amaya Jeyarajah Dent

I am an experienced Creative Producer with 12 years in the sector.  I produce large scale, site specific, outdoor work, nationally and internationally.

 

I’ve worked with artists from all over the world, producing work in mediums including large scale promenade theatre, aerial circus,  giant puppetry, carnival ,  work on the water, and pyrotechnics.

 

 I work to bring people together in moments of connection and joy by participating in something spectacular.  I am excited by world creation and building from scratch in unique found spaces. 

​

I am experienced in creating projects with communities, and firmly believe that things are rarely interesting unless everybody is in the room.
