Born and bred in Adelaide, it would seem today's guest on STAGES was born to dance! Dance classes lead to competitive dance ... work in musical theatre and then to his success as one of the country's most versatile choreographers.
Cameron Mitchell has acted as personal choreographer for musical theatre star, Caroline O'Connor; provided the steps to child entertainers Hi5. And he has choreographed for an impressive list that includes Kelly Rowland, Natalie Bassingthwaighte, Sony Music, Warner Music and Festival records. With each dance he creates a unique language tailored specifically for the artist in focus.
As a performer he has appeared regularly in commercial musical theatre - HOT SHOE SHUFFLE, CHICAGO, OLIVER, WEST SIDE STORY, MY FAIR LADY and SPAMALOT.
His passion for musical theatre has seen him extend his role to that of a much in demand choreographer, creating dance to support the storytelling and shape the world of a variety of projects - MACK AND MABEL, CALAMITY JANE, BIG FISH and CRY-BABY are just a few.
Cameron has also fostered the training of many young performers, previously serving as Artistic Director of Sydney's Brent Street Studios - guiding young dancers to be versatile and to embrace a range of styles.
This year he makes his directorial debut at the Hayes Theatre with the musical CATCH ME IFYOU CAN ....Well .... I caught Cameron and here's our insightful conversation.
