About George

I write music for the stage and for the stories people want to tell. My work ranges from full-scale musicals and children’s theatre to orchestrations, original songs, short films and music created for churches and organizations.Originally from London, England, I hold a Master’s degree in Film Composition and Orchestration and a degree in Acting and Musical Theatre from Mountview Theatre School. I performed in West End productions including Kiss of the Spider Woman, Blitz! and Forever Plaid, and played lead roles in the UK national tour of Godspell and a German production of Starlight Express. After moving to Orlando, Florida, I served as Director of Production at The Holy Land Experience, composing  music for 
 the park from 2004 to 2010. From 2010 to 2019, I worked with  Jonathan Hickey to create the Singing Christmas Trees productions at First Baptist Orlando. Musical theatre remains at the heart of my work. Jonathan and I have written nine children’s musicals, and since 2010 we’ve led an annual, one-week summer theatre workshop where young performers learn acting, singing, dance, and technical theatre. I’ve written several full-scale productions, including The Last Adam, which received two New York workshops and toured  in spring 2024. I also orchestrate and write original music for a range of projects, including theme songs and other material for AdventHealth, First Baptist Orlando, and Salem Church.
