NATIONAL THEATRE WALES

Matthew Lawton (Communications Director)

Hello I am the Communications Director of National Theatre Wales. I was previously working as a freelance consultant for a wide range of Music & Arts Festivals across the UK and Europe. I could be described as a social entrepreneur and have always been enthusiastic about changing the way people access culture. I helped formed the Something Creatives collective, the driving force behind Secret Carnival, Big Love Inflatable Church, Northcote Lane Market, Milgi, Flashmob, Wildlife and the Cardiff Arts Institute. I have straddled the music and arts industry for many years and have become known for creating unique and innovative marketing campaigns, I always want to break the rules.

Working here at National Theatre Wales is going to be an amazing, exciting journey for me. I aim to make sure that all our communications reflect our core values. Engaged, Innovative and International.

I have a B.A Honours from the International film School of Wales (2002) and in 2008 completed a Post Graduate Diploma in Arts Management at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama.
