Benedict Andrews is one of the most sought after Australian theatre directors of his generation. Dividing his time between Sydney and Berlin, he is a regular guest at the Sydney Theatre Company, Company B Belvoir, and the Schaubühne am Lehniner Platz. He is known for startling adaptations of works from the classical repertoire alongside plays by contemporary dramatists. His marathon adaptation of Shakespeare's history plays, The War of the Roses, was the theatrical highlight of the 2009 Sydney Festival, winning six Helpmann awards.
