Pinwheel creates, produces, collaborates, consults, advises, and educates

We tailor our approach to each client’s requirements and we are always happy to discuss how to make best use of what we offer.

Full Project Delivery

As a Creative Director and Producer we initiate, develop and deliver projects. We are fearless about working across artform boundaries and combining formats we know intimately with new technologies and practices. We are also deeply knowledgeable about what it takes to move from vision to practical delivery without compromising on quality.

Project Development

We work with artists and creative organisations to develop early creative ideas into fully formed projects. As well as bringing our creative input and narrative approach to help refine the original concept, we lead R&D processes, conduct practical feasibility, carry out detailed project planning and budgeting, and can advise on contracting.

Clients have included Mark Murphy, Avanti Display and S&DR200, Emergency Exit Arts, Northern Broadsides

Producing

Sometimes your project is practically ready to go and just needs a safe pair of hands to take the reins. We can provide the producing skill and know-how you need to practically realise your project on time, in budget and with the highest quality production values.

You can read more about how we worked in this way with Southpaw Dance Company on RUSH.
