Bio
We are The Project People. We provide flexible, affordable producing support for artists, creatives and creative arts organisations. Run my multi-award winning producers, Millie Wood-Downie and Molly McGeachin, we have a combined 17 years experience Creative Producing. Everything from theatre, cabaret, workshops, festivals, and events - you name it, we’ve produced it. On our journey we realised how vital a Producer is on all the projects we’ve worked on, including our own, as we both started life as self-producing artists and we continue to make our own work. Past work includes HIGH STEAKS co-produced with ELOINA & Beth Sitek (New Diorama, Bristol Old Vic), GISELLE:REMIX (Pleasance Theatre) and Fool's Moon Cabaret (Soho Theatre).
