Jethro Compton
Jethro's most recent work as an actor includes Haemon in Antigone (2010), the Boy in The Boy James (2010) and Renard le Clown in The Tartuffe (2008-2010). He is the company lighting designer and has designed the lighting for all Belt Up productions over the past three years including their debut production of Metamorphosis in 2008 for which he won the NSDF Judges Award for Best Lighting Design.
He has also written for Belt Up; Octavia, a fairytale inspired by Cornish folklore, and Quasimodo, an adaptation of Victor Hugo's Notre Dame de Paris. Both plays were performed at this year's Edinburgh Festival Fringe as part of Belt Up's The House Above. Quasimodo is being performed at the Southwark Playhouse later this year, for which Jethro is directing. He is also the director of Atrium, another production from Edinburgh that will be performed in London in November.
Jethro works as producer for Belt Up; his highlights from the past few years include runs of The Tartuffe and The Trial in Edinburgh, York and London during 2009/10, and this year's The House Above.
