30 Years of Global Events and Productions — restored historical archive

· Updated

Restored October 2026 from a May 7, 2024 first-person historical article. The production names, places and roles below are drawn from that record; the grouping and minor spelling are normalized for readability. Year-only records do not imply an exact event day. The source remains linked above, and the current appearances collection contains other work.

Explore the searchable visual production archive

The visual production archive connects historical event records with venues, roles, organizations, selected existing portfolio photographs and corresponding case studies. Photos are labeled as related archive imagery when they have not been confirmed as depicting that precise event.

Rebuilding the complete historical record

This page preserves the major names, dates, locations and relationships found in the May 2024 original. The separate appearances index and case studies provide more project-specific details. Some engagements span multiple years; they should not be collapsed into a single arbitrary January 1 date.
