CHRIS MCNEIL 

Chris started his theatrical career as Marshall Herrick in Arthur Miller’s Crucible. It was during this performance, aged fifteen, that he quickly realised his true vocation lay off the stage, and preferably behind it...

So started more years than he cares to remember painting sets, hanging lights (balanced on the top of dodgy bits of scenery) and rigging sound equipment with random highlights working with Genesis and the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra.

Chris has for the last fifteen years been operating live sound for a mixture of Folk bands, Rock bands, Covers bands, solo artists, string quartets, rugby tournaments, and theatre productions such as Godspell and Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

More recently Chris has toured as Sound Engineer and Production Manager with A Night at the Musicals, Sound Engineer with Mad About Musicals in 2007, Sound Engineer for Mad About Pantomimes in Jack and the Beanstalk and Beauty and the Beast, Sound Engineer for Independent Ballet Wales and Company Manager and Sound Engineer for The Eva Cassidy Story.

Just to fill in the gaps he also runs a recording studio in Lincoln! Chris is delighted to be working with Mad About again and looks forward to an exciting tour and re establishing his relationships with the service station staff of Great Britain!
