his musical OUR HOUSE, and on television to win awards
and plaudits for works including NEVILLE'S ISLAND, THE
FLINT STREET NATIVITY, CRUISE OF THE GODS and children's
series THE ROTTENTROLLS. Tim's first two feature films
were released in 2003. CALENDAR GIRLS starring Helen Mirren
and Julie Walters went to number one in the UK, becoming one
of the most successful British films of all time and one of the
top fifty grossing films in UK cinema history. BLACKBALL,
starring Paul Kaye and Vince Vaughn reached number three in the
UK charts as did his third film, KINKY BOOTS starring
Chiwitel Ejiofor and Joel Egerton.
Most recently Tim released
a solo album, HARMLESS FLIRTING, completing a tour of

wonderful reviews at the Edinburgh Festival. His recent work
for stage includes the THE SAFARI PARTY which toured the
UK, ABSOLUTELY FRANK which premiered at the Stephen Joseph
Theatre in Scarborough and the stage version of THE FLINT
STREET NATIVITY at the Liverpool Playhouse which became the
most successful production in the theatre's recent history.
