Eric Jackson

Prior Live Experiences

An originally conceived, directed, and choreographed outdoor theatre concert experience in Sonoma, CA with Transcendence Theatre Company.   Character development, relationships, conflict, and resolution were all created with new arrangements of songs from a popular "summer playlist" of familiar tunes from the 60's through today.

Director of the book musical at Lexington Theatre Company in which the goal was to honor the original while also restoring power and agency to Felicia's character throughout the entire tragic love story.

Choreographer of Red Mountain Theatre's remounting of the Carole King story where vocabulary of movement was created that was always narrative driven all while being performative.  Musical numbers honored the history that they came from while still being stage worthy for Birmingham's contemporary audiences.
