International costume designer Andy Neofitou\'s most recent credits are Nabucco directed by Elijah Moshinsky for New York\'s Metropolitan Opera, Jane Eyre directed by John Caird on Broadway - for which she received an Outer Critics Circle Award nomination - Cameron Mackintosh\'s new version of Martin Guerre at the West Yorkshire Playhouse, then in the USA and Miss Julie in Athens.
Andy\'s many other major designs for the theatre include West End Shows Miss Saigon, Grease and The Baker\'s Wife. She also designed Peter Pan at the Royal National Theatre, the arena production of Bizet\'s opera Carmen at the Royal Albert Hall directed by Frank Dunlop, and Timon Of Athens with David Suchet in the title role directed by Trevor Nunn at the Young Vic.
Andy\'s highly acclaimed work for the Royal Shakespeare Company over many years led to her outstanding success with Les Miserables directed by Trevor Nunn and John Caird still in the West End, on Broadway and in many other countries. Her beautifully researched and detailed period costumes won her a coveted Tony Award nomination. She endorsed her achievement with Miss Saigon directed by Nicholas Hytner at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane, and her designs have subsequently been reproduced for the many productions worldwide.
Other credits with the Royal Shakespeare Company include The Changeling directed by Michael Attenborough; Bill Alexander\'s production of The Merchant Of Venice with Antony Sher, and Fair Maid Of The West directed by Trevor Nunn for the opening of the Swan Theatre at Stratford, transferring later to the Mermaid Theatre in London. She designed the costumes for Hedda Gabbler with Glenda Jackson at the Aldwych, in Canada and the USA; Once In A Lifetime at the Aldwych and the Piccadilly; Peter Pan which enjoyed three separate runs at the Barbican between 1982 and 1984 and Nicholas Nickleby in the United States as well as Stratford.
Andy\'s contrasting flair for contemporary fashion was illustrated in her costumes for Gemma Craven and Liz Robertson in Andrew Lloyd Webber\'s Song & Dance at the Palace Theatre directed by John Caird.
Andy\'s film credits include Rosencranz and Guildenstern Are Dead starring Richard Dreyfuss directed by the author Tom Stoppard, and Still Life with Roger Daltrey and Nickolas Grace.
