With nearly four decades of experience ranging from stage manager to production and even direction, Domingo’s résumé reads like a veritable Who’s Who, having worked with some of the worlds’ most famous artists and biggest stage productions.
From the Nico Malan (Artscape) to Sun City and the Superbowl, Rome and even the Royal Variety Show at the Royal Albert Hall, London, Domingo has been responsible for training and leading large teams of professionals to go beyond their best. Domingo enjoys rolling up his sleeves and getting stuck in.
