Jeff lives next-door to Ed and had seen some of Ed`s plays. When Ed expressed the view that Hastings needed a theatre company as there was nothing here at the time, Jeff saw the opportunity to flex his technical muscles.

This has resulted in Jeff becoming Technical Manager for the company, and involves organising lighting, sound, and numerous other requirements to put on a show.

Jeff was a member of the Ormond Movie Club for more than 40 years, and has made many films. Interested mainly in the technical rather than the creative side of film and theatre, Jeff is also the company`s photographer.
