Leigh Widdowson
I've loved making things ever since I was a child, but I never imagined that I'd be making props for stage shows. It all started a few years ago, helping out a friend by making some guns out of wood for Dramatic Productions' "Catch Me If You Can" - a simple job that snowballed from there!
That led to more requests from other theatre groups in the Canberra region and before I knew it, I was managing the props for more of Dramatic Productions shows.
Over the last few years, I've worked on "Sweeney Todd", "Heathers" and "The Producers" for Dramatic Productions; "Tommy" for Canberrra Philharmonic; "Les Miserables" for Free-Rain; and "Australia Day", "Happy Birthday Wanda-June" and "She Stoops to Conquer" for Canberra Rep.
