Director’s bio:

Trey Lyford is a theatre creator, director, designer, and performer. He is also a teacher and a founding Co-Artistic Director of the highly acclaimed physical theatre company rainpan 43 performance group. With longtime collaborator Geoff Sobelle, Lyford has co-created and performed in all five of their shows.
While his theatre and performance bio could go on, most importantly this was Trey’s very first time as a director of a short film in collaboration with Hanna Gaffney, Darren Peterson, and Desmond Confoy and he hopes it doesn’t show too much!
