Matt Winkworth
Theatre Composer & Musical Director
"Crackerjack pop-rock songs … All of Winkworth's songs are zingy, memorable and musically complex”
- The Stage (2025)
“Winkworth's music throughout is lively, funny and has some real earworms”
- BroadwayWorld (2025)
I'm a composer, arranger, and musical director with a love for new writing and telling stories through music, sound and theatre. My composition and songwriting is catchy with quirky twists - always in service of the narrative (I find myself drawn to folk stories, satire and horror, but always open-minded as to where stories might arise from).
Recent work includes two Christmas shows at The Rose Theatre, London (Cinderella and Robin Hood and the Christmas Heist), and the UK Theatre Award-winning musical The Assassination of Katie Hopkins at Theatr Clwyd
I have worked extensively with young people and community participants, and believe the arts should be accessible to all. As an MD and educator I create inclusive learning environments that bring out the best in performers.
