Bruce Oneil Email Address

Conductor

Royal Shakespeare Company is an entertainment company which provides Theatre, Shakespeare, Education, Exhibitions, Events and Live cinema broadcasts.

I have worked as a musician since I was 16 years old, and my career has focussed on musical direction and supervision, primarily in the live performance & theatre sector, ever since. I have worked across an eclectic range of music genres, have a passion for discovering new music and enjoy responding to a brief & the ensuing composer and repertoire searches. My instinct for articulating the narrative qualities of music and interpreting the interplay of music and drama has been a central theme of my career. I have planned, musically directed, supervised and produced approximately 50 RSC studio recordings and supervised music for the post-production process of around 30 filmed RSC productions. I was originating Music Director of Matilda the Musical, the UK Cast Album (recorded at Air Studios) and the Original West End transfer to the Cambridge Theatre. I am currently Music Supervisor for the RSC Theatre adaptation of My Neighbour Totoro, for which I jointly won (with Music Director Matt Smith) the What's On Stage 2023 Award for Best Music Direction/Supervision.
