CLAMS IN THEIR EYES
PRODUCTION, SET DESIGN, BUILD, video production, motion graphics
Clams In Their Eyes is a high-energy cabaret event that has been captivating audiences since 2017. This unique show parodies the classic 90s TV talent show "Stars in Their Eyes," bringing a night of excess, flamboyance, and pure entertainment.
Participants, transformed into their favorite musical stars, deliver unforgettable performances, complete with homemade application videos, live karaoke, comedy, WWF-inspired stunts, and game show parodies. It's a celebration of the bizarre and outrageous, all while maintaining a DIY ethos.
“Clams In Their Eyes is the product of taking ‘wouldn’t it be funny if…’ and then completely committing to it.”

MY ROLE
As the producer of Clams In Their Eyes, I've overseen the show's growth from a 60-capacity venue to a 1000-capacity spectacle. Starting with our first New Year's Eve event in 2017 at Delicious Clam's DIY space, I've been instrumental in every aspect of production, from stage design and props to writing and animations. My focus has been on maintaining high production values while preserving the event's chaotic charm.
Each year, I've scaled up the event, increasing capacity and budget, allowing for more elaborate performances and special effects. Our commitment to quality and creativity has earned Clams In Their Eyes a loyal following, with tickets selling out rapidly and the event being dubbed "Sheffield's Glastonbury."
Through Clams In Their Eyes, I've been able to create a platform that not only entertains but also brings together a community of like-minded individuals, all eager to participate in and witness a night of sheer, unbridled fun.
