0

The London College of Music (LCM) at the University of West London (UWL) will welcome Olivier Award-nominated theatre composer and local resident Andrew T Mackay as part of its free Arts in Conversation series.
The event takes place from 6pm on Tuesday 30 January at UWL’s Ealing Campus. Andrew will be sharing his experiences, stories, and insights on working in the music, film, and theatre industries. This will be followed by a Q&A, drinks and nibbles.

Andrew’s work on the theatrical adaptation of Life of Pi was honoured with a nomination at the 2022 Olivier Awards, and he immediately followed up his first foray into theatre by composing the score for Shakespeare’s Henry V at the Donmar Warehouse, which starred Game of Thrones actor Kit Harington as Henry.

Andrew studied at LCM in 1982 and worked for a while in advertising, before being asked to compose a score for an Indian feature film, Little Box of Sweets by writer/director Meneka Das. This won Best Music at HBO’s South Asian International Film Festival.
