Mathew Schreiber, a native of Santa Cruz CA, draws on music elements from all over the world. He finds inspiration in recordings of natural soundscapes to form organic, evolving, layered music. He has created sound design and original music for theater productions such as "Tomato Plant Girl" and "The Yellow Boat" for the West End Studio Theater Academy. Red Egg Theater provided the opportunity to create rich atmospheres for "What Happened In Hamelin?", written and directed by Gina Marie Hayes. He has also produced music and sound design for Cook and Company's "Stone Soup" and "Jimmy/Joan." He has performed as sound operator for numerous theater and dance productions including Shakespeare Santa Cruz's "Shipwrecked" and "Lion in Winter", "Mariama - a Tale of Freedom and Grace" written and performed by Marian Oliker, dance concerts for Cabrillo College, and dance performances by Sharon Took-Zozaya, Per Holland, Lerelee Whittle, Bruce Lee and many others.
